NEW UPLOAD: Thesis statements are not mandatory but sometimes, they help form a secure argument and line of enquiry that they hang their analysis upon.

Ideas please!

What strategies / pedagogies / approaches have been successful for A-Level Literature? Especially for raising students who maybe weren't top performers at GCSE.

Retrieval is such a fundamental part of my planning at this time of year with my exam groups. I’ve been following this ‘5 a day’ starter revision schedule since November with Year 11 and it’s worked a treat! 🧠 #retrieval #TeamEnglish #aqaenglish

Some ideas about the WITCHES in Macbeth.

The extent to which the Witches cause rather than predict M's tragedy is deliberately ambiguous. And that's entirely Shakespearean: his tragedies always deal in blurred lines between fate, individual agency and outside influence.

[Evan Amato @SirEvanAmato]

Shakespeare understood evil like no other

His plays are filled with murderers, adulterers, and thieves — but one villain stands out from all the rest

She tempted, deceived, and tried to play God — but paid the ultimate price for it…🧵

Getting back into the swing of classroom life with an evening making quotation drills! Always loved this idea from @SPryke2 #edusky @Team_English1 @EnglishWales @LitdriveUK #teamenglish #englishwales #aninspectorcalls #quotations #englishteaching #englishlit

[Andie 🧚🏻 @af_english123]

Working on a similar booklet to my last, but for creative writing, covering foundational basics (e.g comma splicing, tense control etc), variation of sentence types, effective description, use of metaphor etc! We’re loving teaching on such a granular level at the moment🥰
