This is a sample of the full collection of excerpts and worksheets to prepare for Cambridge first language Checkpoint and IGCSE exams.

Why choose this pack?

1. Instead of the usual unrelated 200-word passages adopted in course books, this set explores a continuous narrative featuring distinct characters facing familial conflict and rebellion in a dark fantasy-themed, dystopian world.

2. The materials are perfectly aligned with the Cambridge 0500/0990 Paper 1 criteria, such as writer’s effect and directed writing, which are typically difficult to find apart from past papers. The questions (not the story itself, which is authentic) are generated with the help of AI, but curated and edited by a teacher.

3. Includes master text, line numbers, glossaries, 6 different tiers (Grade 7- Grade 9, and two levels within each grade), and teacher mark schemes. Suitable for differentiated learning contexts/environments.

The complete pack incorporates a total of 17 excerpts and 102 worksheets.

This taster pack includes the first 3 excerpts, complete with glossaries, answer keys, and 18 worksheets.

You won’t get a better deal anywhere.
