The Call by Peadar Ó Guilín | Complete Higher Level Junior Cycle Novel Study Bundle

A complete teaching and revision bundle for Peadar Ó Guilín’s dystopian novel The Call, designed for Higher Level Junior Cycle English.

This ready-to-use bundle includes:

• A 74-slide PowerPoint presentation
• An 89-page printable and editable student workbook
• Context, genre and the rules of the Call
• Spoiler-safe reading checkpoints
• Plot summaries and major turning points
• Detailed character analysis
• Development of key relationships
• Themes including survival, prejudice, power, revenge and identity
• Analysis of viewpoint, structure, pacing, imagery, contrast, symbolism and setting
• Evidence and quotation activities
• Discussion questions and extended writing tasks
• Model analytical writing
• Character, relationship, theme and writer’s craft workshops
• Higher Level exam-style questions and planning activities
• Timed-response planning and self-assessment
• Final revision grids and a knowledge organiser

The presentation can support teaching during the first reading of the novel and later whole-text revision. Clearly marked checkpoints allow teachers to explore the novel without revealing later events.

The accompanying workbook follows the same sequence as the PowerPoint, making it easy to use both resources together. Students record quotations and page references from their own edition, avoiding problems caused by differing pagination.

Suitable for classroom teaching, independent study, homework, assessment preparation and revision.

Both resources are fully editable.
