This powerpoint and the hand-out which duplicates it give students detailed notes about which contextual ideas they should use for each of the poems in exam essays. The powerpoint is designed as a traditional lecture from which students can take notes. Later the teacher can give out the word version so they have full details. I’ve suggested that students take notes from the powerpoint in a way which makes them focus on something specific like - what they didn’t know before or key details, rather than attempting to take detailed notes.

Keats bundle
There is lots of useful context throughout these lessons, putting it between the poems in the order in which they were written. The general tone presumes that the students and teacher can work out what the poems mean but suggests themes and allusions to Keats' letters and journal which help to illuminate the poems. This bundle includes lessons on most of the poems in the Edexcel A Level selection (not Autumn or Melancholy though): O solitude On first looking into Chapman's Homer On the Sea In Drear Nighted December On sitting down to read King Lear once again When I have fears that I may cease to be The Eve of St Agnes To Sleep Bright Star Psyche Ode on a Grecian Urn Ode to a Nightingale I also drew a lovely time-line which I hope you enjoy. By a quirk of my own idiocy, there is no lesson 5 - don't worry, it's not missing!
