Themes + Characters for 'An Inspector Calls': revision + sample essays

This is a bundle of 12 powerpoints which thoroughly cover the characters and themes in ‘An Inspector Calls.’

Each powerpoint covers a theme or a character. They are all super clear and colourful, each one consisting of at least 40 slides that guides the class through the characters and themes from the start to the end of the play.

There are lots of activities for the students which can be completed as a class, in groups/ pairs or individually. There are answers on separate slides to all questions/activities.

Use of short key quotations allow plenty of opportunities for students to closely analyse language.

Additionally, there are also some ideas for top-level context and exploring the text in different ways which helps students reach the highest grades.

Each lesson finishes with two essay questions so teachers can choose the one they need to teach according to their exam board.

One is an essay question which follows the format of AQA and Edexcel. There is a full top level answer as well for students to read.

One is with an extract-based exam paper suitable for Eduqas students. This includes detailed slides showing how to annotate, how to plan and, really usefully, an example of a top level answer.

So in total, there are 12 lessons and 12 sample essays. Depending on how much you want students to write, these 12 powerpoints will take 12-24 hours in the classroom

My students found these really helpful- I hope yours do too!
