I like resources which are visual and can be used on different levels. I've been teaching for a long time and relish the challenge of helping others learn.

Lesson asks students to examine WHY being part of a multicultural society might be a good thing/bad thing. Video clips included. Ready to go. A bit London centric but can be adapted to other cities :)

Getting under the skin.... Lennie Small

A variation of HOT SEATING.....students create questions they'd ask Lennie on his run from the barn. They then exchange and answer. Adapt this to any other character in the novella. Clearly adaptable to ANY play/poem/novel.

Not my idea, but I use this with low ability, reluctant readers. Works wonders. Rules on the slides and texts/novels/plays etc work well with this game. Classes practically begging to read aloud after one lesson of this !

READ THE TEXT/PLAY THE GAME

Students work in pairs through this 'board game' activity, answering questions generated by the throw of a die. Use coins for counters. Adapt questions to any text/level. Student led lesson. Get them to note difficult questions. Pair less able with more able. Hours of possibilities
