Shakespeare’s classic tragedy forewarns of vanity and its fleeting values, explores the concept of aging and the decline of control, power and identity. In an age of social media, its vanity and its attached fleeting values, our individual lack of control and our ever-changing identities in the post-modern world, this text remains relevant and essential. I have taught this text many times in the last 20 years and I have used this specific resource (revised in 2020): to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material/homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This dynamically presented PowerPoint lesson of 24 slides, includes: a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, a theme tracker, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This is a complete resource with no additional work required from the teacher. Enjoy!

A Level Poetry: ‘The Gun’ by Vicki Feaver

(0)
Feaver’s ‘The Gun’ is a dynamic text that explores the typical meaning, the purpose and the post-modern regard for guns. Through this motif, Feaver explores the emotional changes, the concept of power and gender expectations. This text also breaks contemporary liberal taboos connected to hunting. 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 23 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!
