Book Description
Accolade Press's new, comprehensive guide to KS3 Literature is your one-stop-shop for ensuring success in English at KS3 and beyond. With a focus on teaching essay writing skills, this stimulating volume incrementally walks students through the building blocks required to fashion a perfect essay. Starting with the writing of analytical sentences centred around quotations and how we might stack them into paragraphs, it goes on to cover the art of invoking historical context, before finally demonstrating how to bring everything seamlessly together. KS3 students are required to cover poetry, Shakespeare, drama and prose. Tackling each of these requirements in turn, this guide works with thought-provoking set texts that push students further. As such, not only is this an invaluable resource for KS3 students looking to prime themselves for the rigours of GCSE, but it is also doubles as a complete scheme of study for educators looking to build a syllabus. Texts covered include: An anthology of nature poems ranging from canonical Romantics (such as William Blake and William Wordsworth) to overlooked voices of the twentieth century (such as Hilda Doolittle and Amy Lowell). A selection of poems from the Harlem Renaissance (to exercise unseen poetry skills). Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and Romeo and Juliet. Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest (to cover twentieth century drama). F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (to cover novels/prose). Dr Anthony Walker-Cook received his PhD from UCL in 2021. Before that, he received his BA (First Class, 2016) and MA (Distinction, 2017) from Durham University. He is an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has been a tutor for the past five years. He currently works in Higher Education alongside tutoring, continuing his research and writing articles about LEGO.

The Vanishing of Katharina Linden
Author: Helen Grant
Publisher: Delacorte Press
ISBN: 0440339618
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Helen Grant's The Glass Demon. After Pia’s grandmother dies in a freak accident, the neighbors in her little German hometown of Bad Münstereifel glance at Pia with wary eyes. But then something else captures the community’s attention: the vanishing of Katharina Linden. Katharina was last seen at a parade, dressed as Snow White. Then, like a character in a Grimm’s fairy tale, she disappeared. Ten-year-old Pia and her only friend, the unpopular StinkStefan, suspect that Katharina has been spirited away by the supernatural. Their investigation is inspired by such local legends as that of Unshockable Hans, visited by witches in the form of cats, or of the knight whose son is doomed to hunt forever. Then another girl vanishes, and Pia is plunged into a new and unnerving place, one far away from fairy tales—and perilously close to adulthood.
