Of Mice and Men

Description

The activities and ideas in this pack will help students develop a close understanding of the text, explore its social, cultural and historical contexts, consider Steinbeck’s ideas and perspectives, and analyse his use of language and structure.

‘There’s a strong focus on the themes, characters and life in 1930s America in this pack, with plenty of support for students developing their own critical interpretation. There are some great contextual images of the Dust Bowl and documentary-style videos too. It’s a short but powerful novel so the approaches are suitable for KS3 students as well as KS4, and there’s something for all abilities.’

Helen Stacey, writer
