This is a collection of PowerPoints that accompany a YouTube video playlist which can be found by searching ‘Pate Resources Jekyll Hyde’ on YouTube. The PowerPoints look at revising the key quotations, themes, and context points of Jekyll and Hyde in preparation for the GCSE English Literature exam. These slides are for all of the YouTube videos. I will add to this collection as I create more videos. The videos are aimed at students who are revising, home learning, or who have missed some lessons and need to catch up on the play. They cover the slides in much more depth. Please note, these are not lessons. They are a collection of slides (and some short activities) with notes to help in the revision of characters, chapters, themes and context points, with some exam-style questions. I have included the PowerPoints in PDF format, as well as PPTX. A link to my fully resourced 24-lesson Jekyll and Hyde scheme of work can be found here. Other resources can be found in my shop. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

This PowerPoint, when printed (or emailed) as a booklet, can be used as English Literature intervention or revision. There are 32 slides in total. Personally, I have given it as revision to my students. They plan the answers with me in an after school drop-in session and then they work through the booklet in their own time and use what they have learned to answer the exam-style questions - which I then mark and give feedback on. However, it could be used for isolation/exclusion work, extra revision, class work, home work, for intervention groups, or for GCSE re-sit students. The tasks are aimed at students aiming for a Grade 4 or 5, though it could be easily adapted for any English Literature student. Each session is designed for students to be able to work through on their own, or in small groups. There are revision activities and model answers (grade 4 and 5) in the booklet. Additionally, there are five practice questions - one from each section of the AQA 9-1 GCSE English Literature (8702) exam: Paper One - Macbeth Paper One - Jekyll & Hyde Paper Two - An Inspector Calls Paper Two - Power & Conflict Poetry Paper Two - Unseen Poetry Please check out my other resources.
