CCEA GCSE Multimodal- DVD Covers: Hulk and Iron Man

(0)
CCEA GCSE English Language: Paper 1 Section B: Multimodal Texts I usually print out both DVD covers in A3 and get the students to analyse either the presentational devices or language devices in small groups, then feed back for compare/contrast analysis as a whole class. I used this essay help sheet with a middle band GCSE class to help guide them.
Robert Frost's Into My Own Analysis

Robert Frost's Into My Own Analysis

(0)
The following resource is a video I have made that analyses Robert Frost's 'Into My Own' I use it for the CCEA specification: The Study of Poetry 1900-Present and it contains notes on: language and imagery, rhyme, rhythm, structure, tone, speaker, analysis of title, context etc. I have uploaded it in MP4. I generally ask students to analyse the poem using question prompts in class and then send them home to watch the videos to ensure I am expedient with my time management. It also ensures students can discuss the poem to understand it fully during class time and then get the thorough analysis required at home. Hopefully you find this useful. Thanks *NOTE: When I upload more analytical videos I will be compiling them into a Bundle so it is cheaper for you to purchase!

Reading to Access Media Texts - Mark Schemes for sample mocks

(0)
Hi all, Here is a compilation of some mark schemes made for sample Media Text Mocks I also compiled a while back. I’ve included the mocks just in case you can’t locate them on my shop. Hopefully this makes marking easier - it also is a good basis for creating sample PEE chains with the students. I use it with the sample matrix that CCEA provided in the SAM document.

A travel writing reading comprehension and writing exercise. I used this with a Year 9 class who had been studying travel writing to help them practise for their ‘Bill Bryson: A walk in the woods’ comprehension and their ‘creative’ responses where they write their own piece of non-fiction travel writing in the form of a travelogue.
