The essay discusses how Anita Kay O Pry Reynolds examines portrayals of gender roles in medieval literature. Reynolds analyzes works like Beowulf, Lancelot, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight to show typical representations of masculinity and femininity. However, Reynolds notes that The Canterbury Tales by Chaucer presents less traditional gender roles, such as the Wife of Bath who had five husbands, which was unusual given social norms of the time. Overall, the essay looks at how Reynolds uses medieval literature to understand strict gender roles and norms in medieval society.

Margaret is a character in Shakespeare's Richard III that conveys themes of corruption, the supernatural, and anger. As a historical figure, Margaret was used as a political tool and married off at a young age, like many women of the court. In the play, she acts as a device to express these themes, particularly her rage towards Richard III and others through her speeches. Her characterization aids Shakespeare in propagating the Tudor dynasty and retelling this period of English history.

Sculpture
I have a couple of bags in my room into which I throw any
material that may be used to make sculptures (i.e.

some
materials to groups and asking them to sculpt a concept,
idea,
lesson objective from earlier.

VIII
with success criteria – can be esoteric as well as literal.)

Play Doh
Hand out pots of Play Doh and ask students to make a concept,
idea, event etc.
Could develop by handing out the concepts secretly. Students
work in groups and have a limited amount of time. They must
then go around the room and try to work out what each group’s
concept is.
Or, introduce the lesson topic and then ask students to turn the Play
Doh into what they would like to have learnt by the end of the
lesson (or how they would like to have changed through the
learning)

Find the definition
Liven up definitions of key words by printing them off and
sticking them up round the room for students to find and
copy
down.
(tip – print the definition in a large font and the key word
underneath in a tiny font so they have to move around.
Also,
can supplement it with the key words on the board so they
know how many they have to get)

Genre
Hand out material related to the topic and asks students to
re-
write or re-act it in a given genre.

Use the outline of a tree – given or drawn by pupils – to order information or learning and provoke questions.
For example, the tree on the right could have basic concepts of the topic at the bottom, then more specific
information along the trunk and branches followed by questions students now want answering in the leaves.
Tree on the left could be split in half – what we have learnt so far about the topic and what we want to find out.
78. Stimulus
Taking a lead from Philosophy For Children (http://www.sapere.org.uk/
)
begin the lesson by placing stimulus material around the room for
students to
inspect. This could take any form you like – poems, articles,
experiment
results etc.
Follow up by - instigating a P4C lesson
Back To Starters - using the stimulus as a means to initiate thinking

Prop-tastic
Use props by –
- Dressing up (or have a student dress up) as a character
somehow related to the lesson – the rest of the class
must try and guess who it is and what the link is.
- Having a bag of props relating to a character. Students
take one prop out at a time and have to try and guess
who it is and what the link is.
(alternatively props could relate to a country, concept, text
etc.)

81. Solutions
Set students a problem. This could be nonsensical,
philosophical,
scientific etc. and ask them to think of solutions. Encourage
them to reason through the full implications of their solutions.

explore whether these are or are not feasible

warming?’)

Silent Instructions
Students are in pairs. One receives an instruction and must
convey this to their partner without speaking (or writing).
Develop by - allowing students to say 1 or 2 words only

could specify or they could choose).
Scaffold by showing a clip of scuba divers communicating.
86. Translate Back To Start
Students are in pairs. One student receives a key word, question
or topic related to the lesson and a sheet with the Morse code or BSL
alphabet
on it. Their partner also receives this (but obviously not the key word!)
The first
student communicates and the second translates.
Develop by

word for 2 to communicate to 1
- Ask students to come up with
their own, related, messages
- Pairs ask and answer
questions using the code

Pass the Parcel
Wrap up an object related to the lesson and play pass the
parcel.
Each layer could include a question related to previous
learning or the lesson to come.
89. Time/Place Lapse
Students close their eyes whilst you guide them through a short
narrative transporting them to a different time or place. This
‘lapse’ then becomes a means to think about a topic, idea etc.
and the role it plays in our (everyday) lives. Ensure you signpost
the fact that the time or place you have been transported to
does not have whatever it is you want the students to think
about.

One student receives a card with a famous figure and
some
biographical details on it. The rest of the class question

strictly ‘yes’, ‘no’ or ‘don’t know’ responses) so as to
ascertain who they are.
91. Dissonance
Try to encourage students to experience dissonance in
their
thinking
e.g. Imagine a square egg; Why doesn’t school not exist?;
Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division – why isn’t
there another one?
This could be used to disrupt or question habitual ways of
thinking. It can also challenge reasoning or encourageBack To Start

Mood
Decide on a particular mood you would like students to
begin
your lesson with – calm, attentive, enthusiastic etc.
Ask them to role-play this mood; take them through a
series of
different scenarios in which they must maintain it. Then slip
into
the lesson itself and return to the role-play if and when
required.

101. Big Picture Back To Start
Ask students to reflect on what the bigger picture is – in relation
to education, the particular subject, the current topic or
whatever. This can lead to a clearer understanding of the details,
a re-energising of the classroom or a more meaningful
experience for teacher and student.
(Could use resources to stimulate thinking about the bigger picture)

Summary
Ask students to provide a summary of what they learnt last
lesson or across the unit. Develop by asking for different
styles,

out the

Play Simon says with the class. Could develop by asking
them to
do the opposite of what you say, or by bringing in requests
related to the learning. I.e. Simon says show me with your
fingers how many lines in a Haiku.
106. Post it
Put up a number of different questions around the room
and
give each student 1-2 post-it notes. They have 5 minutes to
look
at the questions and discuss them with others. They must
then
vote for which they would like to focus on during the
lesson. This
is done by sticking their post-it note by the question. The
question with the most post-its becomes the focus of the
lesson. Back To Star

Celebration
Perhaps once a term use the start of the lesson to
celebrate the

Have a proposition on the board as pupils are coming in.
They
must either defend or refute the proposition, depending on
where they are sitting. You could reveal a slide showing
who is
what or just arbitrarily divide the class in two. The idea is to
Practice argument – regardless of you personal opinion.

Students are in pairs. One receives a sheet with

the
information as possible.
Develop by putting conditions on questions and responses.

122. Press Conference
Begin the lesson by calling a press conference – you have
an
announcement to make and students must take notes and
then
question you on what has been said. Could be announcing
what
the lesson is about, or a provocative statement related to
the
content etc.
