Talking about Victorian London

Dear students, Now let's get into the time machine and travel back to the 19th century Victorian Britain. YOU are going to be the teachers. In groups of 3-4 people, you will choose 1 of the following topics and prepare a brief speech about it with a powerpoint. You can use any realia or props you think necessary. We'll give you more details in class.

 Topics:
 1.- Industrial Revolution
 2.- Jack the Ripper
3.- Victorian writers: Charles Dickens, the Brontë sisters and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
4.- Queen Victoria
5.- The Commonwealth / the British Empire
6.- Sherlock Holmes; the characters, the film and tv versions
7.- The Victorian society (Puritanism)

 You can bring your laptop to class...

 Your beloved teachers,
