This lesson plan for Animal Farm uses ‘home groups’ and ‘expert groups’ to give students ways of approaching a novel so that they have two opportunities to discuss a key chapter from the text before they complete their own written response.
Through sharing and discussing original ideas with their peers, students can really delve into the text.
