'A Christmas Carol' Character Quotes English GCSE Revision

'A Christmas Carol' Character Quotes English GCSE Revision

(11)
I created this free resource when re-reading the Dickens novel 'A Christmas Carol' in preparation for teaching it to my year 10s next year. I wanted to take some really key (quite short) quotes from the novel that would be easy for my students to remember and use for revision. This resource could easily be used in lesson by making it into a test / quiz - the students would need to be confident in answering 'who said' the quote and in what context it was said. Equally, this resource is great to provide students with as part of a larger 'A Christmas Carol' pack. If this resource is helpful to you, please leave a review.

This free resource has been created by myself in an aim to support my students with their home learning of Macbeth - a surreal necessity during the Coronavirus outbreak! It’s a Microsoft Word document with enough annotations to ensure a good understanding of this Shakespeare text. This does not include really high level analysis and development but it does make this fantastic resource accessible to all ability levels. I would suggest that this would be a good resources to use in any of the following situations: Remote learning Accompanying resource for classroom teaching Homework setting Booklet creation for students who have missed Macbeth lessons (i.e. students off school with long-term illness) Although this resource is free, it is just a sample of the whole text annotations that I have created. Please find a link here to the download for the annotations for the entirety of Macbeth’s Act One - /teaching-resource/macbeth-act-1-annotations-12284655

GCSE Speaking and Listening (EDUQAS)

(1)
This PowerPoint presentation provides the necessary information for years 10-11 to plan and complete their speaking and listening assessment. This PowerPoint is aimed at the EDUQAS spec, but could be very easily amended if the criteria were changed for a different specification. I use this presentation as an introduction to S&L and then let the students complete research on the computer to start creating their presentations. With my classes, I find it is very helpful to print this PowerPoint for them so that they have a reference / guide to help them throughout the planning of their S&L presentation. This PowerPoint includes: - an overview of what the students are expected to present - what the students can use to support them during their presentations - criteria from the EDUQAS mark scheme - FAQs
