A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is the fifth
book in a series of Graphic Revision Guides for GCSE English Literature. This book brings an element of fun and informality to the study of the
GCSE text of A Christmas Carol, repackaging large amounts of complex
information in an engaging and simple manner. Studying the sheets doesn't seem
like reading or working, yet having these graphic sheets in front of them helps
students immensely in understanding and sequencing the plot, remembering key
events, distinguishing between characters and understanding characters'
perspectives.
Although initially designed to help and support
SEN students, the author soon found that all the students in the class wanted
copies of the graphic sheets and benefited from using them. Many students find
it difficult to remember what happened in a book and in what order, let alone
to write a timed essay picking apart the intricacies of it. With these books,
students will gain confidence in their knowledge before jumping into the deep
end.
Each book contains:
- Visual
summaries of the plot
-
Character profiles, including a fact file and quotes from the book
-
Exploration of key themes and the context for the book
-
Additional graphic reference material, to help students understand the
setting of the book
- Activity
sheets, including matching quotes to pictures, vocabulary building and drawing
character maps.
The resources are printed in black and white for
easy photocopying and enlarging.
