Roald Dahl - The Landlady Scheme of work (AO2 focus)
A fun and engaging scheme of work based around one of my favourite short stories by Roald Dahl.<br />
<br />
I created this scheme of work for my Year 8 set 1 class; however, it could easily be differentiated for lower ability classes. I've endeavoured for the scheme and activities within to have a strong focus on developing pupils' AO2 skills.<br />
<br />
The SoW guides you through the text with a focus on how Dahl creates tension as well as including activities to get the pupils thinking deeply about the characters and themes Dahl presents - all with a focus on analysing language - something which my pupils often struggle with!<br />
<br />
I've chucked some fun templates in at the end (Facebook profile, Trip Advisor template, diary paper etc.) which could be used to break up the language analysis stuff.<br />
<br />
I've put a lot of effort into this, so hopefully it will be useful for those who get the opportunity to teach this fantastic story.
