In Lesson 4 of the 'The Invisible Man' play study, students will delve into the complex characters of Kemp and Griffin with the learning objective of deducing information about characters from a play. This lesson is structured to facilitate a progression in understanding, starting from a basic grasp of the characters to a more detailed comprehension. To achieve this, students will engage in a character comparison exercise, which will serve as both a teaching tool and a means of assessing their progress.

The lesson begins with an imaginative starter activity where the class discusses the hypothetical scenario of being invisible, setting the stage for the themes of the play. Following this, the main teaching activity involves a whole-class reading and discussion of Act 1, Scene 1, for 15 minutes, focusing on the characters of Kemp and Griffin. In pairs, students will then spend 20 minutes on a character study, delving deeper into the personalities, motivations, and actions of the two characters. For those who are ready to extend their learning, the addition of quotations from the text to their character points is encouraged. The lesson concludes with a plenary session where pairs feedback their findings to the rest of the class, incorporating peer and self-assessment to reflect on their understanding and the insights gained.
