What do teachers say about this resource? (8612)

I just want to say what a wonderful resource the Curious Incident of the dog in the Night Time pack is for Eduqas A Level Drama. Please do an extract specific one again next year!

C Want, HoD & Customer

Pitched suitably for an A Level student who has not had previous knowledge of the play [and] Every element of Component 3 is addressed. This resource is extremely user friendly for a teacher. I would use the material in the form of notes to give students about the play and its context. The practical exercises are apt to generate useful notes for students to develop their own means of directing this extract. I particularly like the marked sample essay which shows clearly how the marking is attributed with AO captions.

What do teachers say about this resource? (11923)

A really good resource which is tailored to the Eduqas Component 3 Section C text extract Curious Incident. It contains a good range and variety of activities to provoke and encourage student consideration of the 2023 given extract. The layout is clear, easy to follow, the content is clearly written and accessible for students. It is a good resource for both group and individual study. I would certainly recommend this resource to teachers and students preparing for the Eduqas A Level Drama Component 3 (Section C) written exam paper... The content is high quality... The content is clearly written and laid out – a very accessible resource that addresses the needs of the specification... Appropriate suggestions are provided to assist the student in preparing this extract for their final written exam... Example exam questions match that which might be asked in the exam... I would use the resource to plan a teaching Scheme of Work, issue activities for students to work through during class and I would also give the students sections of the resource to work through for independent study.
