There are three extracts here from three Charles Dickens novels (*Oliver Twist, *). This is followed by five reading tasks and six writing tasks. This was originally set as cover work and can be completed independently, and is at least three lessons of work. It was created for KS3 but would still be appropriate at KS4 as it uses AQA Lanuguage Paper style tasks. Furthermore, students would not have needed to study Charles Dickens in order to complete this work.
The tasks are:
- Reading the extracts provided
- Simple list four things tasks (information retrieval)
- A grid asking getting students to pick out information and make suggestions about the speech, appearance and behaviour of the upper class people.
- Students are asked to write a paragraph about the presentation of the poor characters in each extract.
- A task where students must use the extracts to explain what they think Dickens’ view was of the poor and how they were treated.
- The writing tasks are varied between non-fiction tasks asking students to write artiles on the homeless, a speech on their attitude to education, a description of a rich house etc.
A simple and easy stand-alone resource. The sheet is a back to back sheet of A4 which can be folded into a mini A5 booklet for students to store easily in exercise books- it also requires minimal photocopying!
