I'm an English teacher who enjoys creating resources. I create things mainly for GCSE English Language and Functional Skills. I also teach creative writing and I like to look at ways for my learners to improve their writing. I have been teaching for six years and I like to make complex material as simple as possible for my learners.

Vera Brittain - Research Task and Creative Writing

(0)
Research task which requires the use of the internet to research basic facts about Vera Brittain. This resource includes two poems and the students are asked to read the poems and identify themes in both poems. The students are asked to compare themes in two poems. The resource looks at the symbolism of a poppy and asks the students to create a writing piece based on hope for the future. Hopefully a resource that looks at the seriousness of Remembrance Day, giving some context and ending on a positive note for the future. It would be possible to set this resource as distant or online learning. Activities last about an hour depending on the students.
