Designed for a two-hour Year 12 lesson, this resource introduces the characteristics of ecocriticism using Dr Seuss’ ‘The Lorax’ to demonstrate how to analyse a text from an ecocritical perspective.
In the second half of the lesson, students will then apply their ecocritical knowledge to an extract from Cormac McCarthy’s ‘The Road’.
This resource includes:
- a structured and comprehensive Powerpoint presentation
- a lesson plan
- a mix and match activity
- Video clips
- numerous discussion points
- ‘The Road’ extract and an exploration grid
- an example analytical paragraph with success criteria
I thoroughly enjoyed planning and teaching this lesson, and the students seemed to enjoy it too!
I hope your class benefits from it too. If they do, please leave a review!
