AQA Lit A spec ppts1-3: Please find attached the first three presentations I delivered to my A Level group. I have uploaded this as a taster to my resource bundle which is also available.

This bundle could be used over a two-week period and is a full set of ppts and resources ready to use. The lessons generated interesting discussion and helped introduce a KS3 group I was previously teaching to Media for their GCSE.

This is 3 lessons worth of activities to bring the play of 'Romeo and Juliet' to life for your students through an interactive exploration of the characters, setting and plot. I really enjoyed delivering this during my NQT year and will definitely be using it again when I next teach the play.

This scheme came out of a very exciting CPD I was privileged to be a part of. The aim was to encourage students to approach creative writing from the position of a writer. The golden rule in the lesson was that we are all writers, including the teacher and any TAs. I haven't written a LTP/MTP with this ppt, but am very happy to answer any questions about the tasks as and when you need. Most are self explanatory, but some were carried out in a workshop with a pro writer, so I didn't include instructions. Enjoy- I loved this scheme! Students created portfolios and then upgraded their favourite story/poem and put into a class anthology, which we had printed for every student to take home.

A wide range of resources, including worksheets, activities, research materials, ppts and quizzes to teach the conventions of TV Crime Drama. I used this initially as a GCSE Media resource, but it could be adapted to suit other key stages, such as Film Studies.

As this has been dropped from the new GCSE syllabus, we were really keen to take our younger students through the text. The resources have been adapted to suit this age group. We used it with Year 8 students in the Summer Term, however it could be used with Year 9. We used this scheme to support reading skills necessary for English Lit Paper 1/2- modern fiction. I ran out of time in the 7-week term, so the last chapter is a little rushed. There isn't an assessment attached to the end of it, however this could easily be added on.

A wide range of activities, worksheets and ppts to supplement reading of the text. This is not an entire unit, but could save you a great deal of time in creating a brand new one as the resources could be embedded into your scheme easily.

This ppt covers key characters and themes across the entire text. This has been used as an entire scheme of work to take GCSE students through the necessary content and skills required to cover assessment objectives 1-3 for this section of the GCSE paper.

This is a full 6-week scheme for year 7s based on the theme of identity. We used this as a platform to explore different forms of poetry each week and to look at different cultural identities- from Irish, British, Japanese to Indigenous Australian. My students were really engaged with the scheme, particularly because it allowed them to write as well as unpick poems. Ideally, the end assessment is based on a piece of their own writing. The Irish traditional folk tales we used were a little complex for some of our students and I would differentiate these further next time around. This scheme was aiming to develop background knowledge and skills for the AQA GCSE English Lit Paper 2- unseen poetry. Mostly we wanted students to understand AO2- poet's methods and a reader's response based on their own work as well as that of others. The scheme also promotes reading literacy.

This is a bundle of resources, including ppts and research articles for students to read and supplement their learning of Othello. I have used these over the past two years to teach the new specification for AS and A Level. I'm sure the resources will need tinkering on your behalf, but they should save you a huge amount of time organizing and researching to create resources.

This series of ppts, activities, research material and quotation revision has been used as part of the A Level AQA Lit A spec for (Modern Times- Post WW2 fiction) however it could be used to supplement another exam board. I used all of these resources alongside other non-computer-based activities/reading. This should save you a lot of time finding appropriate resources online and planning your own. Enjoy!
