Of Mice and Men | GCSE Activity Pack
Excellent… As always, a great resource by this author.
N Stirk, English Teacher & Independent Reviewer
Includes specialised worksheets to meet the needs of the new specifications and to reinforce students' contextual knowledge, firmly placing the novel as a 'Different Cultures' text.
The beauty of this resource is that the wealth of engaging activities, including an activity for every main event, allows the teacher to dip in and find a stimulating worksheet at any time!
Includes a special set of exam worksheets and a new multiple choice quiz providing a fun way to test knowledge.
I don't have any suggestions for improving this resource – it should stay exactly as it is. I see it's by the same author who's written other excellent resources. It's a real pleasure to read his material since he maintains such a high standard of quality.
