Students read 10 sentences from Oliver Twist.
In task 1, the difficult word is removed and students must think of a suitable word to go in the gap.
In task 2, students are given the actual word and must work out the meaning of it. Their answer for task 1 should help.
Useful as a quick revision activity.
Give students the opportunity to think of quotations to match the 6 themes/ideas and then go through the suggested answers one by one on the animated PowerPoint.
