Y9 Conflict SOW

This is a Language Paper 1 (with some Language Paper 2) (AQA) scheme of work by @mrsmdatherton/@EnglishErdAcad in which students in Y9 explore the different types of conflict (man v man, man v self, man v society and so forth) through different extracts from a range of texts (Hamlet, To Kill a Mockingbird, Dulce et Decorum Est to name a few), exposing them to ideas they will cover throughout the remainder of KS4 (rest of Y9 and Y10/11). It is the first unit completed by students in Y9.Lesson 11 and 14 are assessment lessons. Lesson 11 would be a language paper 1 section A (we generally use AQA's Y9 assessments) and Lesson 14 would be language paper 1 section B.If I have used templates/techniques/sources that are not my own, I have done my best to reference in any slide notes or through HTML links in the texts/SOW overview. If I have inadvertently included something that has not been ascribed to the original creator/owner, please notify me (twitter handle below) and I can either amend or remove. I am an avid follower of #teamenglish and #litdrive, and so if I have missed anything I would like to ensure I give credit where due, as these are both invaluable teams and I would not like to dismiss anyone else's hard work.Feedback is welcome- @mrsmdatherton or @EnglishErdAcad...

Please note that I am not an examiner. I created this resource with my own students in mind and the indicative content in the “mark scheme” is my best estimation of ideas which might be credited in an exam scenario. All feedback is gratefully received.The source contained is an out-of-copyright short story written in 1845. It has been reproduced for educational purposes and not for any commercial gain.

AQA Lang Paper 1 Resource and Questions

A great extract from "The Blade Artist." I ignore top two lines of the extract and start with first main paragraph. All questions are same as other paper 1. Question 2 was on description of beach.Question 4 was focused on "The men who enter the scene clearly are up to no good and the mood and atmosphere of the text is changed." To what extent do you agree? The extract is engaging, the shift easy to find, the characterisation classically villainous and some lovely perceptive ideas for the top end to enjoy discovering (Why is Melanie "relieved and scared"? What is the description of the beach foreshadowing about the ending? How does the writer create tension and separation of characters? What assumptions can we make about the opening of the text in terms of how danger is lurking? )Ps He drives his family home, then returns to the beach, murders the two men and then tells his wife he just blew their car up. Jim met his wife in prison and is actually Begbie from Trainspotting. Kids love the gore and horror of the "what happened next!) ... MORE

Narrative Writing - Using an information gap and a gradual reveal of information NB This uses a question from AQA Lang P1 November 2017 as its basis.

This is a series of lessons which I am using as DIRT for AQA Lang P1 November 2017 (writing section). Obviously, you should avoid these lessons if you are planning to set this paper as a mock! As well as this paper, the lesson also makes use of Roald Dahl's short story The Hitchhiker as a model so you will need a copy of this too.The lessons aim to improve students' ability to plan/ craft a narrative using withholding information - first in their opening line and then in the narrative as a whole.

We don't write the targets on the exam paper ourselves, instead we just write the number of the target in the margin next to each Q and get the pupils to copy the target out when we feedback to the whole class.
