A series of lessons to introduce students to the analysis of English Language A Level novels through an introduction to and analysis of lexis, grammar and semantics.
These resources could be used to introduce English Language A Level at the start of Year 12 or as a taster lesson. The resources are not tied to any specification and do not reference any assessment objectives (although these are implied).
The following documents are included:

– Lexis (Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs)
– Grammar (Sentence types – simple, complex and compound)
– Semantics (through analysis of effect)
Two worksheets with texts for analysis
