The Woman in Black: Chapter 5

Two lessons on chapter 5 of The Woman in Black, focusing on description in the novel, of Eel Marsh House and the woman herself, with opportunity for creative writing.
The first lesson focuses on description of the landscape, and asks pupils to create their own description of the house as they walk up towards it, scaffolded with a planning sheet.
The second lesson looks at the extract in which Kipps describes the woman, and considers what we learn about her and her character.
