Hello! I believe in making life easier for teachers, which is why I make my resources available on TES for free, or at a low cost. Most of my resources are full schemes of work, so when you make a purchase you're investing in entire units, not just one-off work sheets. Feedback is welcome! As I evolve in my teaching career, I hope to update my resources as well, so keep checking in. :)

Year 7 Journey Through Time Sci-Fi literature SOW

Year 7 Journey Through Time Sci-Fi literature SOW

(13)
I can not claim credit for the SOW itself, but the PPTs have all been created by myself to fit into the SOW found here. Videos are obviously not included (Back to the Future 2, The Time Machine, The Sound of Thunder, and an episode of the Simpsons are needed for the unit). Focus of the unit is to introduce students to the genre of sci-fi (specifically time travel). Formal assessment is on how and why Wells desribes the living conditions of the Eloi in The Time Machine (historical context links)

The following scheme was devised as a media based unit in English, for year 9. The final assessment is a written report, as well as a group speaking and listening assessment. The focus of the unit is representation within the fast food industry. These resources are only the first half of the unit. Please visit my website to download the rest.

The following scheme was created for use in Year 7 as a way to introduce students to media based concepts including good vs evil, DVD covers, Todorov's narrative, shot types and storyboards. The end result is a film review. Films we use are Cinderella, Tangled and Percy Jackson. Optional lessons exist tailored to film chosen by the teacher. Please visit my website to download entire scheme.

The rest of the resources for my optional end of year study of poetry. I've also included a few random writing activities, which I don't think will take up a whole lesson.

KS3 Poetry Unit (Pt 1)

A few lessons that I've put together as an end of year study of poetry - poems are quite random, but are ones that I enjoy personally and feel are accessable to KS3 students.

A Taste of Honey Exam Prep

I've created three mock Literature Exam style papers for practicing exam skills with my top set year 11 group. Having no past papers to go from thus far, they're just my attempt to give the students a 'realistic' feel for the types of questions they may experience. Feel free to adapt and change.

Some lessons (PPTs) and resources that I use to teach Stone Cold to KS3 groups. Not all of the resources are originally mine, but I did make all of the PPTs. Apologies for any errors you may find -- I don't catch all my mistakes!

Shakespeare/Conflict Poetry Link CA Lessons

I've made the following resources to help support Year 10 WJEC English coursework, in which students write a controlled assessment analysing a theme within a Shakespearean play as well as across at least three different poems. I've focused on Macbeth and conflict this year, so thought I'd share some of the lessons I plan to use.
Never Let Me Go Literature Circles SOW Pt 2

Never Let Me Go Literature Circles SOW Pt 2

(11)
The rest of the 'lessons' created for my top set study of Never Let Me Go. Again, don't be scared off by number of 'lessons'. Most of the PPTs are focusing on one chapter at a time, so you may find you use two in a lesson, depending on how much debate and discussion you have.
