This is the ultimate collection 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. The story is told with lots of subtext, hidden motifs, and layers for different levels of readers.

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. This collaboration ensures better implementation of the criteria and avoids human error.

3. The collection includes a master text, line numbers, glossaries, 6 different tiers/levels (Grade 7- Grade 9, and two levels within each grade), and teacher mark schemes. Meaning it is quite suitable for differentiated learning contexts/environments. The pack incorporates a total of 17 excerpts and 102 worksheets. The full pack also includes the complete source text (Chapter One) as a pdf.

The taster pack (offered separately for free) includes the first 3 excerpts, complete with glossaries, answer keys, and 18 worksheets.

You won’t get a better deal anywhere.
