A range of activities are included, incorporating textual analysis, comprehension, contextual linking, comparison and creative writing.

Additional consolidation and assessment activities are included to extend the unit further. Any worksheets mentioned are included in the pack as are detailed lesson plans with learning objectives, suggestions for differentiation and variety in activities. This unit will stretch and challenge even the most able students whilst supporting those learners who require it. In addition, the Powerpoint slides are visually engaging and accessible.
