This lesson was taught to a low set year 7. The pupils are doing a scheme in which they create their own village and do this through language. In this lesson pupils consider what a manifesto is, consider brief manifestos from the 2017 election and write their own manifestos based on what they are passionate about. Attached is the powerpoint, brief manifestos and a writing frame for their own manifestos (differentiated). Many thanks!

This sheet is for pupils to use when researching their dream job/career. There are 13 questions for them to research in order to consider what they need to in order to achieve their dream job. They can then easily turn these notes into a Powerpoint presentation to use for a presentation and speaking and listening skills.

This lesson is an end of a topic lesson based on the shooting of Lennie. Pupils will learn how to write an eyewitness account based on Of Mice and Men. I used an update to date issue as an example of an eyewitness account from the terrorist attack at the Bataclan theatre, Paris; this ensures pupils are using a modern resource but you can also discuss British Values. I used this with a top set year 9 (low achieving school) but it is easily adaptable. Includes Powerpoint and differentiated resource.
