A taster lesson designed to introduce A Level English Language and Literature to Year 11 students which can also be used as an introductory lesson for Year 12 at the beginning of the course.
Exploring the topic of speech in drama, the resources are not tied to any specification and do not reference any assessment objectives (although these are implied).
The following documents are included:
A 9 slide PowerPoint introducing speech terminology (hesitations, fillers, deixis, prosodics, politeness, turn taking, idiom and pragmatics) and analysing speech in an extract from A Streetcar Named Desire. The lesson includes a starter activity with a speech analysis exercise; an extract analysis activity; whole class discussion; and reflection questions. Opportunities for stretch and challenge are included.
A handout with guided analysis on an extract from Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire.
A lesson plan with guidance for one or more lessons.
