Ernest Shackleton (Prezi)

This lesson is an overview of the story of Ernest Shackleton and the crew of the Endurance during their two years trapped in the wilderness of the Antarctic. The story is told with the aid of a timeline of the expedition in the medium of a Prezi - similar to a Powerpoint presentation but a lot more fun! An explanation of a Prezi and how it works is contained in the Teacher print.

The lesson contains;

1. A Prezi (120mb) which contains 11 slides that tell the story visually, with humorous speech bubbles, and full narration. The last part contains a short video of a journal entry from a fictional member of the crew.

2. A pdf file of materials to use with students, including;
a. A one page text outlining the story.
b. Learning materials for new vocabulary.
c. Listening and reading comprehension quizzes.
d. A journal writing exercise.
e. Page link to the Prezi (Can be viewed online or downloaded)
f. Page link to a short animated video.

3. A full set of teachers notes and explanation on how to open and use the Prezi along with a contact e.mail for enquiries.
