This 30-slide lesson explores Stave Three of Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’.
Students are encouraged to consider how Dickens presents the Ghost of Christmas Present and how Scrooge is affected by what he is shown, including the Cratchit family, Fred’s party, and how Christmas is celebrated by even poor and isolated communities. The lesson explores Dickens’ use of children as symbols - notably Ignorance and Want - and how this might link to the context of the Industrial Revolution. We think about how this all relates to Dickens’ authorial message.
Questions, discussion points, and tasks are included for students.
This is ideal for those studying the novella at GCSE or at KS3.
