An extract assessment, containing part of Act 2, Scene 3, with the AQA AS question above. Students are to read and analyse the extract before attempting to pick out points and construct and paragraph or essay answering the question. (The choice is yours!)

Recommended: Print the Student ppt with two slides per page (as this allows enough room for students to fill in the gaps).
A thorough and detailed powerpoint that explains the tragic theory and terminology of Aristotle, as well as non-Greek ideas about tragedy (including Machiavelli). The powerpoint links to two YouTube videos, linking to Educating Rita, and an accessible exercise that encourages students to explore the structure of tragic narratives.
The powerpoint keeps students engaged, as the 'student copy' has blanks, which require students to read attentively. There are questions within the powerpoint to allow students to stretch and challenge themselves.
This powerpoint works well near the start of the year, or as a revision task. I personally use it after studying Act 1 of Othello, as students will be able to apply the theories and ideas to the text. This resource is a solid task, which will take up a whole lesson (1hr to 1hr 30), and will support students through any text.
Created with the AQA Aspects of Tragedy in mind. Can be applied to other examining bodies.
The resource includes:
A powerpoint with summary slides - covers each chapter individually, highlighting themes and elements of crimes which are present in each chapter.
The same powerpoint also picks out key extracts for students to analyse with a slide that follows up, explaining techniques within.
A separate powerpoint which sets up class group work to evaluate and analyse themes and elements of crime. Students are expected to report back - the resource does not give answers/guides/responses.
A blank word document for students to write plot/events, key themes and elements of crime.
A filled in word document of the above resource (some of this overlaps with the above powerpoint).
A sheet guiding students to close read and analyse key scenes in When Will There Be Good News?
It works well as a group activity, can be used as a guide for making presentations, posters, or even writing essays. It helps differentiate and stretch and challenge learners into close reading, engage with the text and apply it to crime writing. Works great as a revision lesson or a lesson towards the end of teaching the novel.
