Jonathan Swift: A Modest Proposal — Complete EAL Unit

Swift’s satire taught as a guided-irony pack — with a “says versus means” reading, because irony is exactly where a second-language reader is stranded.

WHAT’S INCLUDED — 27 files, 113 pages
• The original text, plus a full EAL edition rewritten at an accessible level — the same lesson for every reader, not a cut-down one
• Two narrated retellings (MP3): Easy English and B1.
• Teaching slide deck (PPTX, 27 slides)
• Student workbook, knowledge organiser and sentence toolkit
• Vocabulary pack built from the text’s own language, not a generic list
• End-of-unit exam
• Answer keys kept in a separate, clearly labelled “TEACHER ONLY” folder — the student files are safe to hand out as they are

HOW IT SUPPORTS EAL LEARNERS
Swift never says what he means, which is the whole lesson and the whole difficulty. The EAL edition and the B1 audio keep the sentences reachable while the “says versus means” reading makes the irony explicit enough to discuss. Print-ready; nothing needs an account or an internet connection.
