Part 2 of 2. Series of lessons to follow class reading of Face by Benjamin Zephaniah. Lesson powerpoints probably run over two or more lessons, but follow the chapters of the book with various activities, questions etc. Taught to high and middle ability Year 8s. Opportunities for writing assessment in Part 1 of SoW (newspaper article or persuasive speech writing). Extension/challenge options included. Body Image lesson relies on students bringing in magazines to analyse - we created posters in pairs/3s labelling how body image was represented in the media, then spent a lesson linking this learning to the novel.
