This opening power point lesson introduces the text through an exploration of the themes, but with an added modern-day context to bring it to life for the students. The key characters are also explored with structured based writing and discussion tasks, so the intention here is to build a little intrigue and provide some essential background knowledge.

A Level: (7) Heart of Darkness Part 2, 2 of 3 The Hut and its book - The White Fog

Joseph Conrad’s ‘Heart of Darkness’ was of course adapted by Francis Ford Coppola into the iconic ‘Apocalypse Now’, often leaving this landmark text sometimes ignored. This chilling work (ahead of its time) questions the hollowness of civilisation and the truly barbaric nature of the British Empire’s campaign of colonialism. This framed novel contains three parts, split down into subsections for study. This power point lesson focuses on part 2, 2 of 3 (The Hut and its book - The White Fog) and contains a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. All slides are beautifully illustrated and very engaging for the students. I have taught this text for the last five years and I have used this resource to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material and as a tool of revision. This is a complete resource that has completed all of the difficult work for teachers. Enjoy!

These complex and challenging texts remain as controversial in the post-modern world as they did at the time of publication. I have taught these texts a number of times and have refined this resource at the close of every academic year. I have successfully used this resource to lead my teaching in the classroom, as a homework or distance learning material and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This colossal twenty-two slide presentation provides the appropriate detail and exploration required at A level, and is suitable with slight adaptions for IB and the American system. This presentation commences with an exploration into the meaning and interpretation f the term, ‘Tragic Hero’, with structured writing tasks, discussion and mini research tasks - bringing awareness to how the definition functions. This exploration scaffolds a more informed analysis of Gatsby and Othello as constructs, and this is once again taught through a series of structured tasks. Every slide is dynamically illustrated and very engaging. This presentation also contains an extension task and homework assignment. There is no work for you to complete whatsoever. This is a complete resource. Enjoy.
