The plot of The Woman in Black by Susan Hill is explored using a mixture of a police case conference-style discussion, interspersed with short video sequences of plot re-enactment from the novel.

The police officers discuss the plot with the support of a ‘case wall’ with photographic depictions of the key characters and a TV screen to show some of the dramatised moments from the novel.

As the police officers discuss the ‘case’, they explore the developing plot and use quotations from the text to support their developing understanding of the events in the novel.

This is from the series: LIT P.D

Teacher Notes
