Relief Lessons for High School Seniors
Relief - AKA 'sub' - lessons are a pain in the neck to design when you're sick or rushing off to PD. Worse, you're always pushing it to get through your programme, so a day or two on word-finds while you're away will have you turning inside out.
This collection of lessons for years 12-13 includes robust work on:
- Self-management - calendar back-planning, kanban boards...
- Unfamiliar (AKA unseen) Texts - cue cards for terminology learning, Poetry (including activities to compare two poems) and Prose activities.
- Finding connections across texts.
- Writing skills - common errors, crafting, essays...
- Text studies - novel/short story, poetry and film.
- Personal responses to texts.
(We even have a few fun games/online activities linked.)
This resource includes:
⭐ A student workbook - print the pages you need OR share in part or whole digitally (perhaps upload to your Google Classroom 'just in case', then on those days off, just tell your students to do pages x and y).
⭐ An answer booklet for teachers.
You will enjoy:
❤️ Robust learning activities that aren't just worksheets that end up in the bin.
❤️ The great range of options, allowing you to introduce your next topic or reinforce prior learning - no time wasted!
❤️ Differentiated activities for the unfamiliar texts section (must do, should do, could do).
❤️ Editability and convenience.
Formats:
🖥️ Microsoft PowerPoint, resized to an A4 page. This means your resource:
- Is completely editable.

Sharing/Copying this Resource
Feel free to purchase just one for your department - no need for a copy for each teacher. However:
- Please do NOT share with the school down the road.
- Please do NOT take it with you to a new school.
- Feel free to suggest the website to others - that'd be great!
That's pretty fair we think! Let's help each other out. :)
