Of Mice and Men - exploring character, setting and revision Blockbusters!

Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck
Although it is not on the exam curriculum anymore, Of Mice and Men will still be one of the finest stories ever written. This text has started to be used by my school with Year 9 pupils in the second half of the year (for GCSE English Literature preparation) - long live Of Mice and Men and long may people want to teach it!

In this area there are:

• Useful sheets exploring quotes said about, to or by characters to greater understand them. (Quotes can then be explored and specific words and techniques can be dissected for higher ability literature classes.)
• Worksheet to analyse the setting of ‘Of Mice and Men’
• 2 x Blockbuster style SMART board games to get your class revising themes, characters, setting, events and structure.

I hope you find them useful!
