Year 8 scheme of work Minority Voice

(0)
The aim of this unit is to consider the impact that context has on the content and voice in literature. This is a sophisticated concept and one that would suit a particularly bright group. However, all age groups can begin to appreciate how a writer writes about what they know and is influenced by the world that they live in. The unit offers three different eras on which to focus: suffragettes, the Irish troubles or Slavery. This is an excellent cross curricular unit, to complete in tandem with History.
