Othello - Act 2.1

This fully scaffolded lesson explores the connotations of different settings used within Othello and the presentations of characters through dialogue, considers relevant context and how this enhances our interpretation and culminates in learners writing a paragraph in response to an exam question with a guided peer-assessment component.

Extension and stretch and challenge activities are embedded throughout; the lesson has an overarching question which encourages the development of higher order thinking. Opportunities for paragraph writing and peer assessment are also utilised.
