This lesson (to be completed over 2-3 lessons) is designed for a high ability GCSE class and introduces students to key contextual areas pertinent to their study of Jekyll and Hyde prior to reading the novel.
Part 1:The lesson begins by introducing the unit objectives and asking students to reflect on prior feedback they have received in setting themselves a target for the unit. The second phase of the lesson uses images to aid students in making predictions and sparking discussions around the content and themes of the novel, before viewing a short animated summary. The final part of the lesson asks students to define the concept of ‘context’, with a challenge discussion question which asks students to consider the pros and cons of taking an historicist approach to studying literature.
Part 2: The lesson begins by introducing students to key numbers surrounding the production of the novel, and the main activity: to work in groups to create posters on a specific contextual area which then be used to present to their peers, and displayed in the classroom for the duration of the unit. The word documents provided contain information and images for students to explore, and the slides on the PowerPoint provide questions for students to also consider and include their thoughts on in their presentation of their posters.
Part 3: During this lesson, students will watch each groups’ context presentations and collect their notes in an A5 booklet. Homework from this lesson is to crunch and consolidate these notes onto a table.
