To His Coy Mistress by Andrew Marvell, a one hour lesson designed for KS5 students preparing for AQA Love Through The Ages (Paper 1, Spec A 7712) or for unseen poetry exam questions for any of the exam boards like Eduqas, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC. The lesson explores language and structure,in particular how the writer uses imagery, contrast and hyperbole to convey the speaker’s carpe diem rhetoric used to persuade his love interest to engage with him romantically.
Additionally, we make connections and comparisons to The Flea by John Donne, another anthology poem. Comparison skills are essential for Section C of Paper 1.
Designed for the A-level spec, it includes discussion questions and topics for students, as well as a range of activities.
