‘Never Let Me Go’ by Kazuo Ishiguro explores an enduring love that battles a hopeless situation. Using the canvas of cloning, Ishiguro explores the moral, spiritual and legal debates connected to the creation of life. In our fractured post-modern world, this text remains both significant and essential. I have taught this text a number of times in recent years, and have used this specific resource to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning resource (SKYPE Lessons), as a homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This dynamically illustrated PowerPoint lesson (22 slides) includes: a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, a theme tracking task, an extension task connected to advanced vocabulary, a homework assignment and a plenary (approximately 2 hours teaching time). This is a complete resource with no further work required from the teacher. Enjoy!

This powerpoint presentation is beautifully illustrated and very engaging for the students. This presentation focuses on the students being able to use a variety of sentence structures for differing purposes through structured exercises.

This beautifully illustrated powerpoint is extremely engaging for the students. This presentation establishes what 'inference' is and how we apply it in our lives. The lesson focuses firstly on the 'inferences' we can make from media images, this works as a gateway to the second part of the lesson where we transfer those skills to explore written texts. I have used this lesson successfully a number of times and it really helps the students to detail their responses more dynamically. Enjoy!
