Description
Reading Course Term 4: The Hobbit
The Hobbit is an enduring classic, which our students adore. It’s a great opportunity to get stuck into a lengthy novel and explore the vast world Tolkien creates for the reader. We explore imagery, tension and character arcs (amongst other things), all while enjoying the exciting adventure we suddenly find ourselves on!
- Tutorials – The tutorials are a blend of the tutor reading aloud, discussions about the novel and written work
- Reading requirements – Students do not need to read the novel before the lessons. However, students will need to do some reading outside of tutorials during the term. Purchasing the novel is recommended. You can find copies in our bookshop
- Feedback and support – Students will receive live feedback on written work during tutorials using Google Classrooms. It is useful to have a Google account that they can use for this purpose
- Homework – Optional homework opportunities provided.
