This lesson focuses on Steinbeck’s use of language to create atmosphere at the start of the novel.
Students start ‘Do Now’ in relation to connotations, followed by a think-pair-share to talk about other connotations. Students then read the start of the novel and answer questions before completing a main task. There is also a hinge question and plenary to check understanding.

Of Mice and Men Chapter 1 Lessons
I created these lessons as part of a full scheme of work on 'Of Mice and Men'. The lessons focus on everything from context, characters and also 'The American Dream' which sets the tone for the rest of the novel. Each lesson has a similar structure: A 'Do Now', 'Think-Pair-Share', Information, Main Task and a Plenary. This makes sure that assessment is present throughout the lesson in many forms. This is part of a full SOW that I have in my shop for £20. It includes 20 lessons and also a detailed 40 page SOW.
