A Level: (12) A Doll's House By Ibsen Act 3 Part ii - Letter Recovery to Suicide Threat (revised)

(0)
Ibsen’s ‘Doll’s House’ is structured into three long acts. For the purposes of teaching I have split the acts down into 3-4 parts, this presentation normally provides just over 2 hours of classroom teaching. This power point presentation is beautifully illustrated and detailed, and very engaging for the students. It includes a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task and a plenary. I have used this particular resource successfully in my own class as a teaching resource (obviously), as a revision material and also as a homework.

A Level: (3) Pride and Prejudice - Chapters 3 and 4

(0)
This landmark text is extremely relevant in today’s post-modern society. This A level power point lesson explores the meaning within chapters 3 and 4. With the AOs firmly in mind it opens the purpose of Austen’s work through structured tasks and academic writing. Extremely colourful and extremely engaging for the students. I have taught this text many times and have used this particular resource to lead the learning in class, as a revision tool and also as a homework – all have worked well for the students. This power point lesson contains a starter activity, a recap on previous learning, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task and a plenary. I tend to provide roughly about two hours classwork per presentation, this way the teacher can shave it down or use it for independent study time. Enjoy – everything is taken care of!

Joseph Conrad’s ‘Heart of Darkness’ was of course adapted by Francis Ford Coppola into the iconic ‘Apocalypse Now’, often leaving this landmark text sometimes ignored. This chilling work (ahead of its time) questions the hollowness of civilisation and the truly barbaric nature of the British Empire’s campaign of colonialism. This framed novel contains three parts, split down into subsections for study. These power point lessons focus on part 1, and contain a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary - in each separate lesson. All slides are beautifully illustrated and very engaging for the students. I have taught this text for the last five years and I have used these resources to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material and as a tool of revision. These are complete resources that have completed all of the difficult work for teachers. Enjoy!
