Streetcar Speed Dating • You will be given a passage of analytical writing on Streetcar. It will focus on a specific theme and a specific section, e.g. loneliness in scenes 7 & 8 • You have 10 minutes to read this analysis and take notes from it in your own words. Make it relevant and interesting! • Next, using only your notes, you have 2 mins to ‘sell’ these ideas, in a speed dating scenario (just as you’d sell ‘yourself’ in speed dating) • If someone describes an idea to you which you find interesting, put a tick next to their name, if you’re not interested, put a cross. • When we’ve finished, you will be given the original analysis used by each of the people you ticked, to take away and revise from.
Applying what you’ve learned For the remainder of the lesson (____ mins), write at least 3 paragraphs in response to the following question: Describe the relevance of the theme of violence / loneliness / sexuality (choose one) to A Streetcar Named Desire Aim to include 3 – 5 glossary terms as part of your response.
