GCSE Literature: ‘Animal Farm’ – Bundle 1 (7x90 minute lessons) Chapters 1 to 4

George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’ is an important text that introduces the students to politics and the corruption within politics, and therefore remains a significant novel for post-modern society. I have taught this text many times over the last twenty years and I have used these specific resources (revised in 2021): to lead my teaching in class, as distance learning materials for SKYPE lessons, as homework assignments and even as tools of revision – All have worked well for the students!

These dynamically presented PowerPoint lessons (approximately 90 minutes teaching time per lesson) each include: a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, a theme tracking exercise, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This bundle also includes ‘An Introduction to the Text’ lesson, ‘The Characterisation of Mr. Jones’ lesson and a ‘Half-Term Assessment – Guided Essay Writing’ lesson. These are complete resources with no further work required from the teacher. Enjoy!
