What do teachers say about this resource? (6319)
An excellent resource... it enhances learning in many different ways. Although it is very focused towards the A Level exam, I also feel that it allows students to appreciate the work, in an enjoyable way, and to share their thoughts and opinions on the novel.
I liked the resource. It felt very complete. This resource is systematic in its approach to the novel and provides the students with an opportunity to consider the setting, themes etc. It also covers grammar, vocab and practices the skills of writing and speaking.
This is an impressive resource, well thought out and organised. It considers the requirements of the examining bodies, but also shows an awareness of students’ needs, in that it offers a variety of source material, activities, vocabulary and questions. The resource is a complete package, incorporating different media, and as such stands a chance of appealing to a variety of learning styles, whilst enriching each student’s appreciation of the book, its historical context and the attitudes of its author.
