Close analysis of the Thornfield chapters of Jane Eyre. This has been produced in a powerpoint format so that teachers may use it in front of the class enabling students to annotate their texts and to discuss the implicit meanings that Bronte hints at in her narrative. This was produced for an A level class but could equally suit a high achieving GCSE group.

This is a brilliant book covering lots of thoughtful issues around friendship, grief and it is also utterly magical and enchanting. This unit of work contains over 170 slides covering comprehension skills, reading implicit meaning, punctuation, report writing, descriptive writing, speech writing to name a few. It was used for year 8 students but could be used for top primary as well as early secondary. Lots of consolidated work here, fun and enough to keep students busy for at least a term.
