Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can confidently plan a cohesive argument analysing Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Tell-Tale Heart’.

Show transcript
Poe shows us how guilt drives the narrator further into insanity and delusion. Single paragraph outlines are useful for organising your ideas into a coherent structure. Single paragraph outlines contain a topic sentence, supporting detail and a summary sentence. Quotations will be needed to support each topic sentence. A cohesive argument aims to prove one 'big idea'. All your ideas and evidence should work together to prove one idea.
