This slideshow was originally made for A-Level students to revise some key quotations from DOAS in a revision session. It looks at four quotations in detai (two from Keats and two from DOAS)l and unpicks the language used, linking this to overall significance and tragic features. There is also an example paragraph on each slide to show how students might write this information up into an exam-style response. There are black template writing frames at the end for students to work through an answer together on the board or have a go at writing their own. This resource works particularly well with the DOAS / KEATS key quotations flashcards (for sale in my TES shop) as this resource uses quotations and key themes found in those resources.
