A wife in london
The poem describes a wife in London waiting for news of her husband fighting in the Boer War in South Africa. Fog hangs ominously over the city. She receives a message that her husband has died, which is difficult for her to comprehend in her shock. Ironically, the next day she receives a letter from him written before his death, excitedly describing his plans to return home to her and the happy times they would share. The juxtaposition highlights the tragedy of war in contrasting the wife's bleak reality with her husband's hopeful words that will now never be fulfilled.
Mcmxiv and nostalgia
The poem explores the theme of nostalgia experienced by mercenary soldiers away from their mountain homes. In vivid detail, the first two stanzas describe the soldiers' physical and emotional suffering as they long for the high altitudes, familiar tastes, smells, and sounds of their homeland. Leaving came with "a sweet pain in the heart" and hurt to hear the "music of home" summoning them back. The final stanza depicts the changed reality upon one soldier's return, finding the same streets but everything different, reflecting how nostalgia transforms perceptions of place and past. Overall, the poem elicits sympathy for how wartime service forces soldiers to grapple with displacement and loss of innocence about home.

My Last Duchess - Robert Browning
The poem "My Last Duchess" by Robert Browning depicts an arrogant conversation between the Duke of Ferrara and an envoy. The Duke boasts about his late wife's supposed infidelity and unfaithfulness, though his controlling nature and paranoia suggest he may have been at fault for her death. The poem uses the Duke as an example of how arrogance and insecurity can undermine wealth and status. It draws parallels to "Ozymandias" in its portrayal of a once-mighty figure whose power is contradicted by reality.

GCSE English Edexcel Relationships: Valentine- Carol Ann Duffy
The poem uses an onion as a metaphor for love. It promises light but its true nature is hidden beneath layers. The speaker offers the onion to her lover, representing her realistic view of love rather than idealized versions. While love can be fierce and possessive, it is also fleeting and potentially "lethal." The various tones convey changing attitudes, from positive to questioning the future of the relationship. The free verse form reflects the chaotic nature of love and life.
Poem Analysis'
This poem explores the deterioration of a relationship through uncomfortable silence and a lack of honest communication between the couple. As more time passes silently in bed, the darkness and clouds outside seem to reflect their declining relationship. They no longer know each other or why they do not get along as they used to. The truth of their situation is coming to an end as their relationship has become miserable and is inevitably over.
Faith Healing- Philip Larkin
The poem describes a faith healer conducting a rushed mass healing of many women at once, giving each woman only 20 seconds of attention. The narrator is critical of the faith healer, seeing him as arrogant and manipulating the vulnerable women for his own benefit. The women seek the healing in hopes of finding relief from their pain, happiness, and sense of purpose, which are absent from their lives.
Valentine
This document provides an analysis of the poem "Valentine" by Carol Ann Duffy. It summarizes that the poem uses an onion as a metaphor for love, suggesting conventional gestures of love are empty. It promises a more original, honest and true love. The extended metaphor of an onion representing love is a clever poetic device that makes an ordinary object an unusual symbol of love.

Thinkers or Junkers? Germans in England 1860-1920 & Beyond by Anne Hill Fernie
Anne Fernie gives a history of Germans in England between 1860 and 1920 which is much forgotten: 2017 has seen the sharp decline in UK German studies at all levels. A 13.2 drop at GCSE level, similar at ‘A’ level and undergraduates reading German has almost halved since 1997. It would appear ironic that in an age where Europe has never been closer geographically, our real sense of closeness to it culturally & emotionally widens.
As a result of this and continued media stereotyping of the ‘bad’ or ‘threatening’ German, many British are unaware of the completely different reputation that ‘our cultural cousins’ had before the onset of WW1 as a nation of ‘poets and thinkers’. Germans of all professions flocked to Britain from the 1860s onwards, becoming one of the largest immigrant groups and contributing immeasurably to British culture and communities of the time.

Weekly lesson evaluations 23rd - 27th may
This document contains weekly lesson evaluations and reflections from a teacher. Key points include:
- The teacher felt a Year 7 lesson on monologues went well but realized they need to distinguish between stage and film monologues.
- A Year 8 assessment preparation lesson helped students plan responses, while a Year 9 reading of Act Three engaged students in discussion.
- The teacher recognized they need to provide clearer instructions and learning objectives in some lessons to improve student understanding.
- Overall reflections show an emphasis on continual improvement, such as balancing praise and feedback to motivate students.
Weekly lesson evaluations 16th - 20th may
This document contains a teacher's weekly lesson evaluations and reflections for lessons taught between the 16th and 20th of May 2016. The teacher targeted using more independent learning strategies and a more literary approach in lessons. For year 8, a "Quote Quest" game engaged students in identifying quotes from Shakespeare that matched different themes, and students learned to choose appropriate quotes for writing. However, a year 8 lesson on assessment feedback was disrupted by poor behavior, rushing the second half. Overall, most year 7-9 lessons focused on annotating texts were successful, while a year 10 library lesson had some disruption that was addressed.
Weekly lesson evaluations 2nd - 6th may
This document contains weekly lesson evaluations and reflections for Years 7-10 over the week of May 2nd-6th, 2016. Key points include:
- Lessons for Year 7 focused on comparing life in District 12 and the Capitol from the book being read and students were able to extract evidence and discuss differences.
- Feedback was provided to Year 8 students on their assessment drafts and a library lesson went smoothly.
- Year 9 received feedback on assessment questions and worked on improving their PEE paragraphs through analysis of vocabulary in a text.
- The formal observation of a Year 9 lesson on Mrs. Birling's character went well with feedback to incorporate more independent learning and role-playing activities.
Weekly lesson evaluations 25th - 29nd apr
This document contains weekly lesson evaluations and reflections for years 7, 8, and 9. For year 7, students compared Theseus and the Minotaur to Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games, engaging with historical implications. Students also designed their own tributes. In year 8, a lesson using a primary source newspaper article went well though there were some behavior issues. Providing an event sheet and model helped with understanding. For year 9, the teacher was absent but later used roleplaying to help students empathize with characters from Gerald & Sheila in preparation for an assessment.
Weekly lesson evaluations 9th - 13th May
The document contains weekly lesson evaluations and reflections from a teacher over the course of one week. The teacher taught multiple year groups and subjects. Some key reflections included needing more preparation when using new technology like Nearpod and ensuring clear expectations are set when using iPads. Setting ground rules and modeling appropriate discussion techniques could have improved a forum theatre lesson with one class. Overall, the teacher aimed to implement more independent learning and develop a more literary approach in future lessons.

A Wife in London
- 1. A Wife in London Thomas Hardy (1840 – 1928)
- 3. The Second Boer War There were two Boer wars, one in 1880-81 and the second in 1899-1902 both between the British and the settlers of Dutch origin (called Boere, Afrikaners or Voortrekkers) in South Africa that put an end to the two independent republics that the settlers had founded. The conflict was over the huge gold reserves in The Transvaal.
- 4. The Second Boer War The British eventually had over 400,000 men in South Africa. The Boers, at their peak had 52,000, using boys as young as 9. In addition, the Boers were mostly untrained farmers, fighting what was perhaps the greatest power in the world. So the match was uneven from the start.
- 5. The Second Boer War The war eventually ended in May 1902 when the last of the Boers surrendered. 22,000 British troops and over 25,000 Boer civilians had died in the conflict.
- 7. My Darling Wife It is spring once more and my heart longs to return home and be with you. We are assured that there is success and an end in sight so I feel hopeful that I will be with you soon. The details of battles here are too gruesome to relate. I am spurred on by thoughts of summer picnics on the Heath at Hampstead and long days wandering through the woods at Highgate. My mind is full of plans for the summer, in the hope and certainty that I will return soon to be with you. It seems like we were so young when I left for this dreadful war and I sometimes wonder if you could still love the man who was the boy you married. But I am certain we will soon learn to love each other anew on my return. I long for that day my love and pray that it will be soon. Your Loving Albert
