The Handmaid's Tale: Chapters 21 -23

This is a resource designed to encourage close reading of chapters Twenty-One to Twenty Three of ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ for A Level.

This includes a summary of the action and then takes the students through each of the chapters chapter with tasks written with a focus of the representation of both the male and female experiences in these chapters.

There are tasks/questions which students can answer independently if working out of class or can be used for discussion in class.

This can be used in class or set as homework for flipped learning to prepare students for discussion in class and/or exam practice.

I have included images for students who may need a visual prompt to contextualize cultural references.

This is one of a series of lessons. Please check out my other resources.
