Jekyll and Hyde - Higher Ability Lesson Bundle - Introduction to Mr Hyde and Duality

The lesson starts with retrieval questions around the gothic genre, with a challenge question asking students to link the genre to the theme of duality. Across the lesson, students then analyse 3 extracts about Mr Hyde, with questions provided to prompt students to look for links to duality, as well as using terminology to identify Stevenson’s choices. The lesson then focuses in on two important questions ‘like some damned juggernaut’ and ‘the man trampled calmly over the child’s body’ to closely analyse these. Students then end the lesson by discussing and recording their ideas about how the tree concepts of Mr Hyde, the gothic and Duality are linked together in the chapter.
