Poetry Anthology Context Revision 'Quiz' Knowledge GCSE Power & Conflict
This PPT was used as part of a revision session.
I displayed a piece of context on the interactive white board from the PPT. Each piece related to one of the fifteen poems in the anthology. We read through the slide as a class and they were then asked which poem the information related to. They would then write the contextual information in their exercise books to be used for revision purposes.
The information is off free resources I found during Google searches. I then compiled it into this PPT.
