An Inspector Calls Context Activity

If you are planning to introduce your learners to the context of ‘An Inspector Calls’, these documents may be of use to you. This pack contains:

1. A mock Twitter feed for Eric Biring (also contains some hints about the plot)
2. Two front covers of an imagined ‘Dandy’ magazine (N.B. the article headlines are the same)
3. A mock flyer for the Titanic
4. A mock receipt from Milwards for Arthur Birling
5. A mock notice from Birling to his workers about a planned wage reduction
6. A mock letter from Eva Smith to a female friend/relative about the planned wage reduction
7. A mock anti suffrage poster (not shown on front cover).

These documents could be used to introduce learners to the context of AIC or to revise the context as you approach the end of the play.

There is a recording sheet for learners to make a note of their inferences as they move through the texts and a PPT slide that presents a suggested question.

Some of the files are available as both PowerPoint slides and JPEG files.
