Remembrance Day English poetry lesson that explores a piece about the significance of war memorials in local villages and towns and how they are as symbols of war and peace.
Students learn about the context around the First World War and its impact on local communities, before going on to analyse the use of language in a poem about a war memorial to convey ideas about war, peace, remembrance and the sacrifice of ordinary people as soldiers to offer a peaceful future for their descendents.
A very useful lesson for Remembrance Day, Remembrance Sunday, as well as for both KS3 and KS4 students preparing for English Literature exams or unseen poetry.
