Animal Farm - Russian Revolution Overview; Prezi; Communism; British Literature

Are your kids confused by why the animals are talking in Animal Farm? This 60-slide Prezi with Guided Notes and Answer key will illuminate Orwell’s master plan to educate the world about power and the consequences when it falls into the wrong hands.

This Prezi takes students through the history of the Russian Revolution from Czar Nicholas II through Lenin’s rule, Trotsky’s horrific demise and finally to Stalin’s reign of paranoia and terror.

Loaded with authentic Communism-era photographs, this dynamic product will create a deeper understanding of Orwell’s Animal Farm but also of a darker time in the world.

The product contains:

*60-Slide Prezi

*Student Guided Notes Handout (to keep students following the presentation and on-task)

*Teacher Answer Key.

Once my students “unlocked” the Orwell’s secret code, Animal Farm became a much more interesting and engaging novel.

This can be used as a stand-alone for students to work through independently OR as a teacher-directed presentation.
