HISTORICISM for the NEW AQA ENGLISH LITERATURE AS LEVEL - Poetry and Othello

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.

Othello for A Level pre-reading

(1)
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

Othello for AQA A level Literature AS or A level preparation

A brilliant detailed consideration of Act One, Scene One and Two. This resource includes exam style questions styled on the new AQA exam specification and has two invaluable model answers. Students can annotate the worksheet (which includes the two Acts in question) and use the assessment objectives to self assess their own work and set targets. This could be a very useful stand alone resource for a cover teacher. It is also clearly addressing AQA's assessment objectives in preparing students for the demands of the examination. The Literary Vocab Power Point can be used to accompany this comprehensive worksheet, which covers at least two weeks' worth of lessons, self study and homework, with two potential exam style assessments and self assessment tools.

Scary Stories

Scary Stories

(1)
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.
