  1. Look back at your prediction activity – what did you predict for this chapter? Whistle and I’ll Come to You Lesson Objective:To be able to explore Hill’s dramatic techniques P123 - 129

  2. What do you notice about these sentences? • During the night the wind rose. • At first I was alarmed. • I listened hard. • Nothing. • There was no child. • No light came on.

  3. Key Term: The Uncanny • Definition – something familiar in an unfamiliar surrounding – something particularly unsettling • Kipps, when listening to the noise in the nursery, says ‘The sound that I had been hearing was the sound that I remembered from far back, from a time before I could clearly remember anything else...’

  4. But what was ‘real’? • AS we read the next section find: • Examples of where Kipps questions ‘reality’ • The uncanny (things which seem familiar to Kipps but which he can’t explain)

  5. Answer these questions: • What is similar between the wind and Kipps’ own feelings: • There was the sound of moaning down all the chimneys of the house and whistling through every nook and cranny. (at Eel Marsh) • The wind raged round like a lion, howling at the doors and beating upon the windows...(his nursery in Sussex) • Out of that howling darkness... • The wind continued to howl

  6. How has Susan Hill used sentence structure to engage the reader and build tension? • Never yet. • Nothing else happened at all. • I saw the face of my watch. • I knew that. • No.

  7. You are Kipps: • If you could ask the Woman in Black ONE question, what would it be?
