What do teachers say about this resource? (5127)
Resources like this are valuable to any English department and can instantly be used in school. This resource is well matched to the AQA A specification. I like the detailed notes on the text and how the resource works. Instantly teachers feel they are using a resource created by someone who understands the text and the needs of teachers. This would give teachers new to this text, specification, and key stage, confidence when teaching. I like how further reading is suggested from the beginning and is done so in an encouraging way. The key themes section gives students a detailed overview of the poetry collection and will also prove handy when it comes to revision. There are also suggested recordings which save the teacher a lot of time and students can use these if completing the exercises for homework. There is a good range of practice questions for the students and a glossary to support their studies further.
