This 15-slide lesson explores Chapter 6 of George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’.
In this comprehensive lesson, students consider how the pigs begin to violate the Seven Commandments (sleeping in beds and trading with humans) and how Squealer is able to justify these transgressions through manipulative rhetoric. The use of Snowball as a scapegoat is explored, alongside how and why Orwell emphasises Boxer’s significance to the farm’s ‘success’.
The allegorical function of the novella is also closely studied, as pupils learn about the slippery relationships between Stalin and the US, UK, and Germany.
Questions, discussion points, and tasks are included for students.
The lesson is ideal for KS3 or GCSE students.
