What do teachers say about this resource? (2025)
I really like this resource. It has a lot of ideas - there's so many that the teacher has some choice - always a good idea to have some flexibility... I would certainly buy this resource.
This resource demonstrates a really clear system of how to approach this text... I really like the way it is laid out, clearly stating the resources needed, the warm-up, development and homework. I particularly like the inclusion of structured homework relating to the task in the session... There is great variation in the practical tasks, often teachers can become stuck in a rut and repetitive with the practical exercises they use relating to the text, this breaks tasks down and gives variation... I like the way resources are highlighted in a box, it makes it easy if you are short of time to grab those items and not have to read entire resource to find out what you need. I am also pleased to see learning objectives and outcomes as this clearly sets out the purpose of the sessions.
