Literary Traditions - Genres - TROPES - Teacher guide, worksheets, slideshow
Help students understand the meanings of tropes in different literary traditions and genres. Students will become aware of their own expectations in relation to tropes and begin to think more critically about the influence tropes can have on our beliefs about groups of people. Use the teacher guide to help YOU get to grips with this aspect of literature, then use the worksheets and class presentation to teach.
This resource includes:
⭐ An editable teacher guide - includes worksheets for your students and cues to link information to the class presentation slides.
⭐ An editable class presentation slideshow to make teaching easier!
You and your students will enjoy:
❤️ A bit of humour along the way (class slideshow).
❤️ Plenty of opportunity to think about tropes in relation to personal reading/viewing habits as well as class text studies.
❤️ A way of categorising tropes using the elements of literature.
❤️ Graphics and tables to aid and scaffold understanding (for you and your students).
❤️ Information relating to the literary tradition of the Māori creator renaissance.

Sharing/Copying this Resource
Feel free to purchase just one for your department - no need for a copy for each teacher. However:
- Please do NOT share with the school down the road.
- Please do NOT take it with you to a new school.
- Feel free to suggest the website to others - that'd be great!
That's pretty fair I think! Let's help each other out. :)
