We Love Dystopian Fiction!

Cath

Average rating:4.9Number of reviews:(95)

In this one-time class, learners will discuss one or two dystopian books, films or TV series they love and will discuss why these dystopian stories are so good, plus what can we learn from them.

Class experience

US Grade 5 - 8

Intermediate - Advanced Level

In this class, the learner will choose one, two or three dystopian novels, films/movies or TV series they love. 

We will discuss characterisation, themes, plots and the ethical and social issues raised in the novels. 

We will look at how the majority of people in the novel are controlled by the people in charge, as well as how “sheeple” affect the story and the main character.

We will explore how the society is structured, how people are grouped and therefore what is seen as important in...

To articulate the themes of a story.

To articulate why the story is liked or disliked.

To know how and why a story has an impact.

I have taught in high schools (secondary schools) in the UK and I have taught in junior and infant schools (elementary schools) in Belgium as well as the UK. I have taught English online for six years.

I will not cover The Handmaid’s Tale unless the learner raises this book or TV series as one of their favourites. If that does happen, I will focus on the structure of the society and how the characters gain their freedom. Sexual assault will not be discussed in my classes.
