Non-Fiction Viewpoint Writing Climate Change AQA English Language Paper 2 Question 5

(0)
A lesson/double on “Climate change is the biggest issue facing our world- worryingly, it is also being ignored.” Write a letter to your local MP giving your opinion on this statement and suggesting things that could be done to tackle the issue. Perfect introduction to viewpoint writing or for students who struggle with the question. Lots of discussion, pair work, debates. Great for NEA spoken language. Uses real life examples from newspapers to encourage students to see expert models.

AQA English Literature Jekyll and Hyde Chapter 5 Secrecy- Blackout Analysis

(5)
A lesson analysing the theme of secrecy within Jekyll and Hyde. Involves students completing a 'blackout analysis' (like blackout poetry) to highlight key words that aid to the theme. Students find the words associated with secrecy, then 'blackout' the rest. After annotating the words they've found, they then use this to spark an analysis based on a GCSE question. Full Powerpoint provided, with differentiated learning objectives throughout, and the extract from the text. Please leave a review and let me know how it goes!
