This book is so important now! This beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully structured power point lesson explores all the key events of this chapter through structured tasks and academic writing. I have taught this novel many times and thoroughly enjoy seeing the student’s eyes open to the bigger world around them. I have used this resource successfully in my own class to lead my teaching, as a homework assignment and also as a tool of revision – all have worked well. This power point lesson contains a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task and a plenary.
