Description
Reading Course Term 6: Journey’s End
This term, we study this emotive play about young men waiting in a trench in WWI. We examine characters in detail, make links to the historical context of the play, and explore how features of a play such as stage directions and mise-en-scène contribute to the audience’s experience.
In tutorials, we will read some key scenes together and examine parts of the text closely. Students will need to read/watch the play outside of tutorials.
- Tutorials – The tutorials are a blend of the tutor reading aloud, discussions about the novel and written work
- Reading requirements – Students will need to read/watch the play outside of tutorials. Copies of the text available in tutorials
- 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.
