Revision of Set Texts

Welcome to today's English lesson, where we will be revising our set texts. Set texts are stories or books that we have studied in class.


Identifying Characters

In our set texts, we have different characters who play important roles in the story. For example, in the story "The River and The Source," we have characters like Akoko, Nyabera, and Owuor Kembo. Let's try to remember who these characters are and what they did in the story.

Understanding Themes

Themes are the main ideas or messages that the author wants us to learn from the story. For instance, in the play "The Caucasian Chalk Circle," one of the themes is justice. Think about what lessons we can learn about justice from the characters and events in the play.

Analyzing Plot

The plot is the sequence of events that make up a story. In the novel "Blossoms of the Savannah," think about how the plot unfolds from the beginning to the end. What are the main events that happen in the story, and how do they affect the characters?


Quick Activity: Choose one of the set texts you have studied and write a short summary of the story. Include the main characters, the setting, and the important events that take place.


In today's lesson, we revisited our set texts by identifying characters, understanding themes, and analyzing the plot. Keep practicing to deepen your understanding of these stories.
