This document provides an overview of assessment objectives for GCSE English Language exams. It outlines four assessment objectives, including understanding how language works, summarizing and synthesizing ideas from a text, analyzing language use and structure, and evaluating different views expressed in a text. The document provides descriptors for candidates who partially or fully meet the objectives, noting abilities like recognizing language techniques, making references to language features, and conveying and justifying ideas about a text.
This document is a post-session report from a presentation on "The Hunger Games" that included a quiz. It provides details on student participation, quiz scores, and responses to multiple choice and open-ended questions about events and characters in the first three chapters of the book. The report lists the 14 students who participated, their responses to 10 multiple choice questions, and one open-ended question asking why they felt most sympathy for a particular character. Overall student participation was high at 98% and the average quiz score was 88%.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Katniss volunteers as tribute to replace her sister Prim at the reaping. She is taken to the Capitol to prepare for the Hunger Games. Upon arriving, she is overwhelmed by the extreme differences between the impoverished District 12 and the excessively luxurious Capitol.
This lesson plan is for a 7th grade mixed-ability English class about The Hunger Games. The learning goals are for students to select relevant evidence from the text and analyze the text by comparing District 12 and the Capitol. Students will engage in starter, formative, and summative assessments including drawing a mockingjay, filling in a comparison table, and discussing similarities between the Capitol and modern society. The teacher provides scaffolding like a differentiated worksheet and plans for collaborative work. Students are expected to finish designing their own tribute for homework.
This lesson plan is for a Year 7 class studying The Hunger Games. The objectives are for students to understand the start of Chapter 3 and empathize with the main characters. Students will listen to an audio recording of Chapter 3, participate in a hot-seating activity where they ask questions of characters Prim, Katniss, and their mother, and write a paragraph summarizing the characters' feelings and which one they empathize with most.

Jeremy Tang observed a Year 7 class focused on narrative writing techniques. The class read from The Hunger Games and discussed vocabulary. Students then worked in groups to create mind maps of descriptive writing techniques. While the lesson engaged students and developed independent work, the observer noted areas for improvement, including better planning reading time to promote comprehension, considering alternative writing forms, and providing more examples to illustrate descriptive techniques. The observer praised student enthusiasm but encouraged the teacher to give more explicit instruction on descriptive writing.
This document summarizes a student teacher's lesson observation. The observer provides feedback on the lesson, which involved analyzing a sonnet from Romeo and Juliet.
