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.

This powerpoint presentation is beautifully illustrated and engaging for the students. Each powerpoint is constructed with a starter, key words and phrases, a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an extension task and a PEE writing task, plus a plenary. This presentation focuses clearly on one scene and touches upon the prominent theme within the starter activity. It is aimed clearly at KS4, but can so easily be adapted up or down the key stages. All of my resources have been run in class and are revised and updated on a yearly basis.

Duffy’s ‘The Map Woman’ is a dynamic text that explores the physical and emotional transitions between ‘girl’ and ‘woman’, and the bias of gender expectations. It remains a significant text for our post-modern society. I have taught this text a number of times, and I have used this specific resource (revised in 2021), to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material (Google Meet/Skype lessons), as a homework assignment and even as a tool for revision – all have worked well for the students. This dynamically illustrated 36 slide PowerPoint lesson contains, a starter activity, a text overview, exploration tasks connected to content, summary and analysis questions connected to language and its devices, questions pertaining to structure and theme, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. No further work is required from the teacher. This is a complete resource. Enjoy!
