The Invisible Man - Lesson 5 - PowerPoint

In Lesson 5 of an English teaching series, students delve deeper into the characters of Kemp and Griffin from 'The Invisible Man'. The lesson begins with a review of what has been learned about these characters so far. Students are then tasked with crafting a P.E.A.R. paragraph, an exercise that encourages them to use Point, Evidence, Analysis, and Response to articulate their understanding of either Kemp or Griffin, based on their impressions from Act 1, Scene 1. This activity not only helps students to analyse characterisation but also to structure their thoughts coherently. They utilise a table provided from the previous lesson to support their writing and ensure they cover each aspect of the P.E.A.R. structure.

Following the writing task, there is an opportunity for peer assessment, where students swap their work with a partner and provide feedback. This is structured as 'two stars and a wish', guiding students to give two positive comments on what has been achieved and one suggestion for improvement. This collaborative approach fosters a supportive learning environment and helps students to refine their analytical skills. The lesson continues with a reading of Act 1, Scenes 2 to 4, with an interactive element where students are encouraged to read 'in the round', enhancing engagement and comprehension through a dynamic group reading experience.
