The Wreck of the Hesperus Work Booklet

The Wreck of the Hesperus by Henry Longfellow teaching PowerPoint.

This is the printable PowerPoint booklet which accompanies The Wreck of the Hesperus presentation. The booklet contains the Mini Task Questions from the presentation PowerPoint and spaces for students to write their answers. This package It is ideally suited to Year8/9 classes and is the first poem I always teach to new classes at the beginning of the year as it introduced them to the terms Structure: Stanza: Line Length: Narrative: Simile: Rhyme & Internal Rhyme and Tone. Please note that there is one stanza missing from this presentation as it was first delivered in Saudi Arabia and the very Christian references in Stanza 14 may have been considered offensive.
