For those who don’t know, November 5th is Guy Fawkes Night (also known as Bonfire night) in the UK. It was always one of my favourite celebrations when I was young. Fireworks, bonfires and lots of fun. I even enjoyed that the traditional fare of burnt/raw baked potato wrapped in aluminium foil. Only later on when I got myself an education did I realise the darker, bloodier story hidden behind the traditions.
Nearly every day somebody comes to my blog looking for a V For Vendetta lesson plan. I have talked about how much I liked the film but until now I haven’t had the chance to write about a lesson that could be used to teach EFL/ESL stuff. Many of you might question why I keep on insisting on using things such as films, songs and video games to teach. Isn’t learning a serious enterprise ?
