A NEW APPROACH TO PRIDE AND PREJUDICE

DEAR FRIENDS,
      HOW TO TEACH PRIDE AND PREJUDICE WAS A HOT TOPIC OF DISCUSSION
      IN OUR  CLUSTER LAST MONTH.
      WELL ,I HAVE FOUND SOME USEFUL VIDEOS WHICH TELL US ALMOST
      EVERYTHING  ABOUT THE NOVEL.

THE TRANSACTION OF THE NOVEL MAY BE DONE LIKE THIS.
********************************************************************************
1.   FIRST A SUMMARY MAY BE GIVEN WITH THE HELP OF THE PREFACE IN THE TEXT.
     THEN THE POWERPOINT PRESENTATION ( MAKE SURE THAT THE LAST SLIDE IS REMOVED)  CAN BE  SHOWN TO HAVE A BROAD VIEW OF THE NOVEL,ITS STORY AND CHARACTERS.( THERE ARE MANY SUCH PPTS AVAILABLE FROM THE NET)
for pride and prejudice.ppt click this link and download

if not available, search and download pride and prejudice.ppt from the bottom part of the list in the link

2.   THEN THE STUDENTS MAY BE ASKED TO READ THE TWO CHAPTERS GIVEN
      IN THE  TEXT.
      THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES MAY BE ATTEMPTED / INITIATED

      1.A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE CHARACTERS.
      2.A COMPARISON OF THE CHARACTERS.
      3. A SUMMARY OF THE STORY GIVEN IN EACH CHAPTER.

3.   SOME SELECTED VIDEOS CAN BE USED  IN CLASSROOMS TO COMPLETE THE
      DISCUSSIONS ,  THE CHARACTER STUDY AND A REVIEW.
