Ideal as a supportive resource for students as they explore the GCSE Edexcel Conflict Poetry cluster, in particular 'War Photographer' by Carole Satyamurti. Students are guided through a range of questions and issues to discuss and identify in the poem.
Students are then encouraged to make links with other poems in the cluster so that they are practising comparative analysis skills.
This resource is also accompanied by an answer sheet so that students can check their responses and add to these in more detail.
