During my discussion with my students, I find myself engrossed in lifting words to look under them, folding away layers of images and metaphors. i have complied ready-to-use PowerPoint presentaion of all the poems in the course. I hope my colleagues find them a good based to set their learners thinking and adding meaning.

Helps the learners to read and think carefully about the poem, the analysis stimulates more thinking, shapes a deeper personal response, no spoon feeding!

This PP analysis is ready to be used, is detailed enough to stimulate clear thinking skills, interpretation skills of all the literary knowledge needed at this level. This PP can be used as is in class, on line and in revision classes. There is room for further additions for a higher level class, for example, A or AS Level. Care was taken not to give course interpretations. It is not a pre-cooked answer to the syllabus requirements so as to blunt the learner’s skills acquisition. Its a scaffolding to think smart.
