These teacher support materials have been carefully developed through classroom practice into a core and extensions model which facilities teachers in setting up varied work, which will suitably challenge average and able pupils. They are designed to facilitate pupils to study on their own, where possible.
Work on the novel is arranged chapter by chapter, with text related varied assignments in the modes of English: Reading, Writing, Talk and Listening. Work with language is assigned in the context of the chapter. Wherever relevant, inserts focus on the Writer's Craft (possibly, part of your lesson).
Optional cross curricular assignments follow, setting text anchored work within the context of the wider world of the curriculum beyond the English department: Research (using ICT), Modern Studies, Philosophy, Art, Geography, Drama, etc.; as these emerge in the course of the novel. All assignments are aimed at developing pupils' understanding:
- of the novel, through study of the modes of English Language and Literature.
- as a means of extending pupils' grasp of related (cross-curricular) knowledge and skills.
