Click on the button above to download teaching resources for the novel The Woman in Black, by Susan Hill. This includes resources to teach a sequence of 24 lessons, and they come in two main forms:
The notes sheets are there to serve as a focal point for each lesson. They can be shrunk down to A5-size and stuck into books or just printed as an A4 booklet. If you want to go with the booklet option (probably easiest), I’ve compiled all the sheets onto a separate document and copied across the big questions.
I’ve tried to keep the PowerPoint slides as simple and unfussy as possible. Each set contains a Do Now task, a big question, tracking questions and a longer task (usually connected to academic writing). They’re fully editable, so you can add or get rid of anything you want.
All the teaching resources are organised into a sequence of 24 lessons, but you’ll naturally find a timeframe that suits you and your wards.
I hope you find the resources useful. A couple of other bits that might be helpful are listed below...
