GCSE Poetry Lesson: ‘Half-Caste’ by John Agard

GCSE Poetry: ‘Half-Caste’ by John Agard

‘Half-Caste’ by John Agard remains an inspirational text that resonates strongly for the adolescent audience. I have used this detailed PowerPoint lesson (21 slides, approximately 2-3 hours teaching time) to lead my learning in class, as a distance learning material/homework and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students.

This beautifully illustrated lesson contains a brief author biography, a starter activity, content and narrative questions, language device questions, structure questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. All the time-consuming work has been done for you, this is a complete resource. Enjoy.
