This lesson is aimed at G.C.S.E students (though I have used with a top set Year 9!). In this lesson students begin with the title considering denotation, connotation and inference before moving on to identifying poetic devices and considering their effect on the reader. Students have a number of tasks to complete including a creative response, comprehension and finally writing an analytical a paragraph.
This lesson is based on the poem ‘Surface Warfare’ by Jehanne Dubrow (copy of poem for annotation attatched!). It compliments the AQA ‘Love and Relationships’ and ‘Power and Conflict’ anthologies but can be used for other Literature exam boards too.
