Introduction to Modern Literature

(0)
An overview of the historical and literary influences on Modern Literature and the transition from the Victorian Period. I have used this after students have researched the area themselves as a way of summarising key ideas and findings rather than 'information overload' on the slides themselves.

When We Two Parted - Analysis Activity

(0)
This resource is a colourful A3 activity sheet which takes students through the poem in a way which requires them to think about the effect of Byron's choices, without giving them 'the answers'. Could be used as an independent task as an introduction to the poem or unseen poetry practice, or could be completed in small groups or pairs as a discussion tool. Could also be a useful revision tool.

Romeo and Juliet: Luhrman and the play

(0)
This presentation takes students through the planning process for comparing the presentation of Romeo in Luhrmann's film version of 'Romeo and Juliet' with Shakespeare's presentation of his character in the play. It is not a scaffold and does not tell students what to write, it is more a guide for how to plan and structure a comparative response.

Rebecca (du Maurier) display

A selection of 16 quotes from the novel, presented visually for display. I've used PowerPoint as printing the slides to A4 whole pages keeps formatting as desired. There is also the option of printing to A3 for individual posters, or print the whole lot for a colourful display.

A series of discussion based questions, which prompt student to compare the presentation of 'truth and deception' in 'A Streetcar Named Desire' and 'The Color Purple'.
