A complete Functional Skills English (Level 1–2) lesson covering text types and text features, designed to build confidence for the Reading exam. This resource helps learners understand how different texts work, how purpose affects structure, and how to identify key features such as language techniques, layout features, organisational markers, mode and medium.
The download includes a full lesson plan and a printable worksheet, making it ideal for classroom delivery, revision sessions, or independent study.

Learners explore imaginative/narrative, persuasive, informative and analytical texts, classify real‑world examples, and practise identifying features such as headings, bullet points, tone, figurative language, sentence structure and presentational devices. Activities support both weaker and stronger learners, with clear explanations and exam‑style tasks aligned to Functional Skills assessment requirements.
