A Level Poetry: 'Grief' by Elizabeth Barrett-Browning

‘Grief’ by Elizabeth Barrett-Browning is a dynamic poem that explores the concept of bereavement and the differing measures of pain it causes. I have used this specific resource to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material (Google Meet lessons), as a homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students.

The beautifully illustrated 22 slide PowerPoint lesson contains a starter activity, a glossary of terms, an author biography, reflective questions connected to the tone and the content, summary and analysis questions exploring the language devices, structure-based questions, an academic writing task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This is a complete resource, enjoy!
