A lesson which worked extremely well with a high ability year 9 class, who were focusing on the fiction section of the Eduqas exam. Can be easily adapted to suit different abilities.
The lesson focuses on the pupils understanding the term 'unreliable narrator' and then reading key extracts taken from 'The Girl on the Train', 'The Yellow Wallpaper' and 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time'. The pupils had to choose which extract they wanted to read and identify in what way the narrator was unreliable. Great discussion came from this.
They then had to imagine they were watching the unreliable narrator and create a descriptive writing piece focused on this. Examples included in the PowerPoint.
My pupils ended up asking me if they could have copies of the books as they wanted to read more!
