A self standing quiz, takes about 40 minutes, could be ideal for a cover lesson as it involves self assessment and the possibility of a useful and worthwhile lesson with no teacher input whatsoever. Possibly more useful if students are given the A4 Literary Terminology Sheets for revision a week before!

A revision resource with activities for students to address the assessment objectives in exams and make a note of key vocabulary for each poem. The template document can be shared with students for a collective revision through shared documents or can be printed and students can fill in during a lesson or for personal revision

Planning for the final assessment, a pre-test and a collection of 8 past paper style tests. Brilliant preparation for the new AQA Romeo and Juliet Literature question.

3 power points and a booklet for use with AS and A level AQA students to revise the pre-1900 poetry. Range of activities for planning, addressing the Assessment Objectives and essay writing. Activities can also be used for revising and embedding poets and poems into long term memory

A series of 4 lessons comparing Gatsby with the pre-1900 poetry for the AQA A Level Literature course.

4 lessons on WISH, DEATH and THE MOON, NORTH WEST & DREAMING WEEK

an overview of Burns' poem Ae Fond Kiss, with a careful look at the use of vernacular and links with AO3. Key questions for analysing aspects of language and structure and suggestions for possible timed essay questions

a simple resource to support the NEW AQA GCSE ENGLISH spec. Preparing for Paper 2 Question 5

A power point to support teaching of Lovelace's poem AS WELL AS looking at an exemplar response from AQA outlining how to address the assessment objectives in the exam. Includes key literary terminology to address the historicist aspect of the syllabus as well as key poijts to aid with understanding of the poem itself.

pre-reading materials on the poem "Punishment", giving an overview of Heaney's context and the political message of the poem. there are also links made with Blake in terms of the historicism of poetry of protest. Some prompts for students to formulate their own essay questions

An excellent resource including plenty of social and historical context as well as analysis of the language and structure of the poem. A stand alone lesson with a possible timed essay response at the end. This produces excellent responses from my Year 12 group, which is a broadly mixed ability group!

a specific explanation of how to integrate a historicist perspective into the poetry and Othello in order to address AO3 effectively. Good range of historicist vocabulary specifically for poetry analysis and links, as well as an outline of Revenge Tragedy and ways in which students can give alternative interpretations of Othello based on gender/race/class changes in society.

An outline of the new A level AQA Literature course, designed for students but also useful for teachers new to the course. Outlines Assessment Objectives, set texts (you will have to adapt this for your own chosen set texts), expectations, wider reading, literary vocabulary and a possible route through the course in preparation for examination at end of Year 12.

A great resource for context with some introductory notes on how to respond to Assessment Objectives, two clear homeworks linked to AOs and some Language, Form and Structure ideas. Would link really well with Flip Classroom ideology as tasks can be completed before lessons and thus inform more meaningful discussion of text

Lesson plan, worksheets and power point presentation covering three 50 minutes lessons. Lessons use Assessment Objective criteria in analysing aspects of love and presentation of Desdemona in Act One Scene Three. Enough here for two lessons preparation culminating in a timed exam style assessment

Worksheets to help support students in analysing Gothic texts (you will need a copy of the film Van Helsing for one exercise - you only need watch the first ten minutes!) Self and paired assessment sheets for when the students are ready to assess coursework.

Looking closely at the scary stories genre, the genre worksheet is designed to work with the story Winter Pruning by Chris Priestley from the short story anthology Uncle Montague´s Tales of Terror. The other two sheets are generic genre or horror or scary story worksheets. For the characteristics sheet, I viewed lots of youtube clips of genres and looked at book covers to get the students to fill in the characteristics.

two very simple resources which would allow sixth form students to run their own debates during registration or PHSE. The format and timing can be adjusted. The only thing you have to do is find some good debate topics.
