Engage, Connect, Create with "1984"!
Teaching critical thinking with 1984 by George Orwell
This engaging webinar is for teachers who work with Black Cat graded readers or are interested in using literature to spark critical thinking in English class.
We’ll explore 1984 by George Orwell, starting with activities that build intrigue and help students dive into the story. In the “Connect” section, we’ll look at ways to guide students in making powerful links between the novel and today’s world—discussing themes like fake news, information control, and the impact of AI.
In the final “Create” stage, we’ll explore how students can respond creatively and critically, using the story as inspiration to express their views through projects, writing, or media. Perfect for helping students sharpen both their language and thinking skills.
