This lesson is focused on Paper 1 Question 3 (AQA - commenting on the structure of the whole text).
This seems to be a popular topic for interviews at the moment.
I have used a very short extract with lots of shifts which widen and narrow the focus - Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie.
Starter: Students rate their understanding of structural devices.
Construct: Students try to identify narrative shifts in focus in the text.
Main: Students look in more detail at the narrative shifts in the text.
This activity is in the form of an A3 table and is differentiated.
Bronze Level: Identify what is happening during each shift.
Silver: Apply structural devices.
Gold: Comment on the effect of structural devices.
I have also included the lesson plan.
For a more challenging class, students can use the extract from the opening of Kite Runner.
