This teaching unit focuses on Act 1, Part 2 of the seminal play A Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen with a particular focus on exploring the various ways in which Ibsen creates contrast, whether it is between Nora and Helmer, or Mrs Linde and Nora, or within other aspects of the play.

The play is a particular success with IB or A-Level students, but the resources can be used with any upper school / high school class!

The unit includes:

1. Comprehension: Quick Quiz Activities: A fun, quick quiz activity to test your students’ reading, and to enable an engaging introduction to the main topics and learning objectives of the unit.

2. Digging Deeper: Symbolism of the Macaroons: This activity goes some depth and takes a closer look at the way Ibsen uses macaroons as a first key symbol to highlight major themes or to indirectly characterise Nora as a m ore complex character than an initial impression may suggest.

3. Close Reading Activity: Analysing Key Quotes: This activity allows for an in-depth look at several of the most important quotes from this part of the play, with a particular focus on looking at Nora’s interactions with Mrs Linde (Christine).

4. Contrasting Characters: Nor and Mrs Linde: This scaffolded activity caters to visual learners and allows for a closer, in-depth look at how Ibsen contrasts Nora with Mrs Linde in Act 1 of the play.

5. Teacher’s Guide & Model Answers for all activities. The teacher’s guide includes detailed model answers for all activities and is designed to help you prepare for a perfect teaching unit.
