Had a breakthrough with Year 13 on ways of approaching the Unseen Prose question yesterday.

Here’s how we did it 🧵

(Spec: AQA 7712/A Paper 2A Section B) One of the things I’ve found my students struggling with most at A-level is approaching a text ‘cold’ and then conceptualising a response.

The question usually reads something like ‘Explore the significance of [theme/emotion/concept] in this [unseen] extract.’

I set my students a challenge to design, create, and ‘publish’ an original book with a budget of £0.00. This is what they came up with! I am blown away. Image The Eyes Are Everywhere - cloth bound and hand stitched!! 🤯 ImageImageImage

Clearing out my notes! So a quick thread on contextual knowledge for Jekyll & Hyde:

1. When Stevenson first wrote J&H, his wife, Fanny was appalled & he burned the 1st manuscript. He then rewrote it & it was hugely popular. 40k copies sold in the UK & 250k copies sold in the US. 2. The character of Jekyll might be inspired by siblings Thomas & Jean Weir - both devout Christians. Thomas confessed to leading a double life - committing various offences in his spare time including incest and witchcraft. Both were hung. More here: drvitelli.typepad.com/providentia/20…
