Have started a conceptual unit of work. Hopefully students will become more aware of the impact of changing circumstances. The novel being used is 'Goodnight Mr. Tom'. To establish the contextual framework I have designed a ppt which is available on my wikispace: http://stannersenglishmatters.wikispaces.com/
Sections from 'The Chronicle of Narnia' could be used to demonstrate how the film fictionalized factual events in an effective way.
A great deal of material is available regarding the evacuation of children during the Blitz, especially from the IWM, including personal stories of those directly affected.
Extra pages and various resources have also been added to my wikispace that might be useful along with new material for Senior English teachers on my HSC ning site.
