Reading Projects
tapping the set text
Remember the Set Text in Part 2 of the Cambridge B2/C2 Writing Paper? No? It's easy to miss but a great resource for teaching a variety of language, literary and life skills! In the presentation below, I explain the process for creating literature projects. I have also included a session by session guide for a project on Treasure Island with some sample materials to try out.
