Hi there.

Welcome to today's lesson.

My name is Mr. Barnsley.

It is great to see you today.

We're still looking at the text of "The Strange Case of Dr.

Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".

And today we're gonna be focusing on the character of Mr. Hyde and thinking about what makes him such a dangerous character.

Let's get started.

So let's have a look at our outcome for today's lesson.

So by the end of the lesson, you are gonna be able to use well-selected evidence, so quotations from the text, to explain how Hyde has been presented throughout the novella.

As ever, we're gonna have some keywords that I want you to keep an eye out for in today's lesson.

They are entity, assailant, cautionary, and temperamental.

Let's look at those definitions together.

And if at any point you need to pause the video 'cause you want to jot them down, then please do.

So entity is a person, animal, or thing with its own identity.

So it might be a very useful word to describe Hyde.

Thinking about another useful word to describe Hyde is assailant.

And assailant is someone who attacks or hurts others.

Now cautionary means acting as a warning.

So we're gonna look out for how we use that word cautionary when talking about Hyde later.

And another adjective that we can use to describe Hyde is temperamental, someone or something that can have sudden mood changes.

So I hope you can already see how useful each of these words are going to be when discussing Hyde, but look out for them in today's lesson and more importantly, see if you can use them in your own discussions.

So let's have a look at the outline of today's lesson.

There are two learning cycles today.

The first, we're gonna be looking at a violent murderer.

So we're really gonna be thinking of thinking about Hyde's violent side, and then we're gonna look at a shocking death.

Okay, so we're really gonna look at the role Hyde plays throughout the novella in the deaths of some of our characters.

Let's dive in straight away with that first learning cycle, shall we? So let's start with a discussion then.

I want you to think about what adjectives would you use to describe Mr. Hyde.

So if you've got a partner, now's the time to pause the video and you can have a discussion with them.

If you're working by yourself, that's absolutely fine.

You may wish to just grab a little bit of paper and note some things down, or just think through this question to yourself.

Okay, so what adjectives would you use to describe Mr. Hyde? Pause the video, give this a go and press play when you're ready to continue.

Welcome back.

I heard some great discussions there and some really nice adjectives I heard and well done, I saw a few of you reaching for a thesaurus.

That was great.

Let's have a look then at Mr. Hyde.

What adjectives could we use? Well, we could use words like mysterious, enigmatic, ominous, kind of all words, which suggest we don't know very much about Mr. Hyde, certainly at the beginning of the novella and all of those words could help us maybe say, maybe think about Hyde as being an unknown entity.

He's this creature, he's this thing, he's this being, but we don't know very much about him.

I heard lots of people saying words like sinister, malevolent, violent.

And for me, all of these words can be categorised together because they all make him sound like a dangerous assailant.

And remember that word assailant means someone who kind of causes harm or attacks others.

So all of these words kind of can be grouped together because we know Hyde is very dangerous and he cause harm to others.

I also heard words like primitive and even better, well done if you picked this adjective directly from the text, troglodytic.

These words that make Hyde seem like he is not as evolved as other humans.

And I really like these kind of adjectives because these help us categorise Hyde as a cautionary warning to society.

They present him as an example of the dangers of science.

If you've talked about context before, you might have talked about how some people may have been very concerned about Darwinist theories and that if we could evolve, then perhaps we could also devolve too, so adjectives like primitive and troglodytic present Hyde as this warning about the dangers of science.

So well done if you said any of those adjectives that you can see on the screen.

Now, well done of course if you had different adjectives, but well done if you are starting to categorise them and show that actually there are many different ways that we can describe Hyde, but actually we can almost group these together to see that Hyde is presented in three very contrasting ways as this very unknown, mysterious character, this very dangerous character, but also this warning.

You know, he represents a physical, he is a physical manifestation, a warning about what science, the dangers of science.

Well done if you said any of those things.

Okay, I would like us now to take a moment to reread this section from chapter four of the novella.

And this is the description of Sir Danvers Carew's murder.

So you're gonna want to have your text open so you can follow along.

It will be on the screen, but let's make sure you have your copy of the text open at chapter four.

And let's read through this together.

"Presently, her eye wandered to the other and she was surprised to recognise it in him, a certain Mr. Hyde who had once visited her master and for whom she had conceived a dislike.

He had in his hand a heavy cane with which he was trifling, but he answered never a word and seemed to listen with an ill contained impatience.

And then all of a sudden he broke out in a great flame of anger, stamping with his foot, brandishing the cane and carrying on as the maid described it like a madman.

The old gentleman took a step back with the air of one very much surprised and a trifle hurt.

And at that, Mr. Hyde broke out of all bounds and clubbed him to the earth.

And the next moment with ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim underfoot and hailing down a storm of blows under which the bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway.

At the horror of those sights and sounds, the maid fainted." Okay, a really graphic description of the murder there.

Some really vivid, horrific descriptions of the brutality of Hyde's actions.

What I want you to think about now is how is Hyde presented in this extract? And I want to think about those three categories that we came up with earlier.

Does he sound like an unknown entity? Does he sound like a dangerous assailant? Or does he sound like a cautionary warning to society about the dangers of science? So pause your video, have a quick discussion, or if you're working by yourself, just think through this to yourself and press play when you are ready to continue.

Pause your video and give us a go now.

Welcome back, heard lots of discussions.

I heard no one was really focusing on unknown entity, it seemed that the maid recognised Hyde, but lots of you were talking about obviously a dangerous assailant, but some of you bringing in that this was still an example of Hyde being a cautionary warning.

What I want to think about now is which quotations were really useful for you in helping you kind of support your argument.

Okay, so go back through, look at this extract.

Some of it's on the slide, you'll need to use your copy of the book to look at the paragraph before.

And just think about which quotations here were really useful in helping you support the argument that A, he was a dangerous assailant.

I think we can all agree that.

But did you spot any quotations that helped you prove that he might be a cautionary warning? Okay, pause the video.

Think about, discuss which quotations were useful and press play when you were ready to continue.

Okay, welcome back.

I saw some great discussions there and really well done to those of you who were carefully combing through the text, looking for the best quotations.

Fantastic, those of you having a discussion about what makes a best quotation, and we will be talking about that very shortly.

What I want to do now is check how your quotation searching was going.

So let's have a look at these four quotations on the board.

Which of these would you say make Hyde sound like a dangerous assailant? Okay, and just a reminder that there might be more than one quotation, which is useful here.

So, "he broke out in a great flame of anger," "with ape-like fury," He, "seemed to listen with ill contained impatience," "hailing down a storm of blows." Pause the video, make your selection and press play when you are ready to find out the response.

Yes, well done if you said A, B and D.

All three of those quotations make Hyde sound very dangerous, very aggressive.

So well done if you selected those.

Of course you might have picked out some others from the extract as well in your discussion.

Now let's check this one.

This one's a little bit more challenging then.

Which of these quotations make Hyde sound like a cautionary warning to society? And I'm really gonna draw your attention to that bit in the brackets there, "against the dangers of science." Think about what we know contextually, what people's fears about science and Darwinist theory might have been.

Okay, much more challenging this one.

So pause video, give yourself a little bit more time to think if you need it, and press play when you are ready to continue.

Yes, well done.

That was a really tricky one, but well done if you said "ape-like fury." The reason why I think this quotation does a really good job of highlighting how Hyde might be a cautionary warning against the dangers of science is that we know, or we know that Darwin, his theory, talks about the evolution from ape to human.

So the fact that Hyde is behaving like an ape, his anger represents it kind of, it seems to draw kind of similarities to an ape could really play on those fears that look, if humans can evolve that they might be able to devolve and they might degenerate too.

Fantastic if you got that one right.

That was a real tricky one there.

Okay, I said we were gonna look at how we analyse and how we decide which quotations are best for analysis.

So when we're analysing a quotation, what we're really trying to do is look at the different layers of methods and meanings in a text, okay? So the best quotations are always gonna be the ones where we can unpeel the layers and look at them in a much deeper level.

So I like to think of a quotation or a text as an onion.

We know the onions, if you've ever peeled an onion, they have different layers and you peel them before you get through to the centre, okay? And when we think about quotations, the centre is the smallest matter in the text, and that is individual words.

Let's have a look at this in a diagram and then we'll look at it as an example.

So when we start by looking at a quotation, we want to think about the overall arching impression.

What are we learning from this quotation? What does it show to us as a reader? Then as we peel back the layers, we might start thinking about, "Okay, well what methods might be used?" And examples of methods might be like similes or metaphors or motifs.

So we might start thinking, "Does this quotation use any methods? And specifically what are those methods showing us?" But as we get to the core of a quotation, we really do want to hone in on individual words because we can say so much about specific words in a quotation.

Let's have a look at this in this example here.

"And the next moment with ape like fury, he was trampling his victim underfoot." So let's think about what could we say, what layers could we look at when we look at this quotation? Okay, so before I give you an example, why don't you pause the video and have a quick bit of a discussion or a think to yourself and then press play when you are ready to see this modelled for you.

Right, fantastic discussions there.

Let's have a look and have a think about whether you thought through some of the similar things that I did.

So first of all, kind of at the overarching level, this just shows me how dangerous Hyde is.

It shows his brutality, it shows that he's violent.

And I'm kind of starting to think, "Okay, well, there's a warning here, there's a level of warning here." Now what methods have been used? Well, it's a metaphor and it's a very violent verb so there's a violent verb in there.

There's this metaphor, ape-like fury.

But there's also, I'm thinking of links here to some context.

There's links to Darwinism as we discussed before, that word ape.

And so what words are gonna help me really dig this deep? What am I really gonna want to zoom in on, hone in on? And it's that adjective, "ape-like," and it's that verb, "trampling." They are the ones that are gonna really unlock the deep analysis that is gonna allow me to talk about Hyde's brutality.

It's gonna be able to talk about cautionary warning.

It's gonna allow me to talk about contextual links to Darwinism.

Well done if you've said any of those things in your own discussion.

Okay, let's have a little bit of a check to make sure we understand this fantastic onion metaphor we've been using so far.

If these two are my layers of quotation and I want to peel back, what am I gonna find in the middle? What is the core of any quotation that I want to zoom in on? Pause the video, have a think and press play when you are ready to continue.

Great job if you said individual words.

Well done.

They are at the very centre of any quotation and they are the ones that are gonna unlock that deeper analysis.

Fantastic if you said that.

Okay, it's over to you now for a task.

You are gonna select one of the quotations from chapter four and you're gonna have a go at plotting it onto this image.

So remember you're gonna be thinking, "What's the overarching impression? What do I learn?" A kind of, "What's the overarching overall thing that I learned from this quotation?" Then I'm gonna spot like, "Are there any larger methods in there? What techniques has the author used?" And then I'm gonna finally hone in on, "Okay, what are the key words then that underpin all my analysis?" And I'm gonna really want to zoom in on, so you can pick one of these two quotations.

Either, "He broke out in a great flame of anger" or "Hailing down a storm of blows." Select one of those quotations and apply it to this image.

Pause if video, give this a go and press play when you are ready to continue.

Okay, welcome back.

Let's go through some of these and think about some of the things that you may have said.

So let's start by, "He broke out in a great flame of anger." So you may have said that this suggests Hyde is very unpredictable.

It might suggest that he is temperamental, that his mood can change.

Okay, we've got a metaphor here.

He didn't actually turn into a ball of flames, okay? So, this is a metaphor, but this metaphor, when we think about fire, it really does have connotations remind us of aggression and anger.

And the key word here is "flame," okay? The key word here is that metaphor flame.

What does flame represent? What does fire suggest to you? What connotations, what does it symbolise? That's what's really gonna pull out all of this lovely analysis about Hyde's unpredictability and the fact that he's really temperamental.

Well done if you had any of those things on your image, and of course you may have had some other things as well.

Let's have a look at the second one though, "Hailing down a storm of blows." So let's think about what you might have said.

Well, you might have said that this attack is relentless.

That it doesn't stop, you know? Hyde continues even when Carew is down on the floor.

Again, this really highlights Hyde's aggression.

It presents him as a really brutal and unforgiving character.

Again, this is a metaphor.

We know that this is a, you know, he's not actually, there's not actually a storm kind of hailing down on Carew.

So it is a metaphor.

But well done if you spotted that this is actually an extension of a metaphor because both hail and storm are from the semantic field of weather.

And this kind of suggests that Hyde is really uncontrollable, okay? Because we can't control the weather, okay? None of us can control the weather and Hyde cannot be controlled here.

And obviously we can really think about this when we're thinking of whole text analysis, knowing that Jekyll can't control Hyde.

And the key words then are "hailing" and "storm" 'cause they're both part of this extended metaphor.

And we'd really want to think about what these individual words say to us and the connotations and possibly even the symbolism of them.

Well done if you said any of those things.

Okay, it's time for us to now to move on to our second learning cycle of today's lesson.

So let's start then with a discussion.

Could you argue that Hyde is responsible for the deaths of any other characters apart from Sir Danvers Carew? Let's pause the video, have a think.

If you've got a partner you can discuss with them.

Otherwise you can just think through to yourself and press play when you are ready to continue.

Some wonderful discussions there and well done to all of you who listened very carefully to your partners as well.

Not just giving some really good responses, but also listening to what your partners are saying.

That's great.

Let's have a look at what some of the old people said, shall we? Well, Laura said, "We know that the shock of seeing Hyde's transformation back into Jekyll," we know that causes Lanyon's death.

So you could definitely argue that Hyde is responsible there, okay? I think we can, there is an argument there.

I'm not saying that is definitely true, but you could definitely argue it.

Jacob says, well, "Hyde eventually becomes too powerful overcoming Jekyll and taking control of his body.

Hyde also becomes a self destroyer in a bid to avoid the gallows, thus ending both his and Jekyll's life." Okay, so Jacob's gonna argue that Hyde is responsible for the death of Jekyll because he becomes too powerful.

He overtakes his body.

And there is some arguments that says Hyde self destroys because he's afraid of going to the gallows.

He's afraid of being punished for his crimes.

And therefore as a result of him killing himself, he also kills Jekyll.

Laura quite rightly says that that's a contentious point.

Not everyone will agree with you there 'cause some people will argue that it was Jekyll who was the self destroyer, that he killed himself because he wanted to kill Hyde.

So she says, actually, you know, that is an argument that we might look at again in future one day, but for today, let's focus on the impact that Hyde has on Dr.

Lanyon.

So I think that's a really good idea, Laura.

Let's do that.

So let's think about the chapter where we hear most from the perspective of Dr.

Lanyon is chapter nine, because we know that is written from the first person perspective is written from it's Dr.

Lanyon's narrative.

I've pulled out some key quotations.

Again, you might want to have your text open just in case you want to look for any more quotations, but I've pulled out some quotations from that text that I want us to think about today.

Let's quickly look at those.

So Lanyon says, when he first meets Hyde, "I kept my hand ready on my weapon." He says, "He was struck in me what I can only describe as a disgustful curiosity." When describing Hyde, he said, "there was something abnormal and misbegotten in the very essence of the creature that now faced me." He says something "seizing, surprising and revolting." These are the feelings that came up inside of him as he looked at Mr. Hyde.

He says, "my arm raised to shield me from that prodigy." And he says, "the deadliest terror sits by me at all hours of the day and night." So this was after he'd seen Hyde and after he'd seen the transformation and after Hyde had left, he said he was being kept up at night by this deadly terror.

What I want you to think about is what did these quotations from Lanyon's perspective, what do they tell us about Hyde? And again, I've put those key phrases, I'd really like to see you using them in your discussions.

Is he an unknown entity, a dangerous assailant or a cautionary warning? Pause the video, if you've got a partner you can discuss.

Otherwise you can think through this yourself.

Press play when you're ready to continue.

Welcome back, fantastic discussions.

And I am so, so pleased to see you using those phrases on the board, the screen, including those three keywords that we talked about at the beginning of today's lesson.

Let's dive in.

I really want to shine a spotlight in some of the fantastic things that you said.

So some of you were saying "Yes, he very much is presented as an unknown entity." Lanyon doesn't know anything about him when he first arrives.

And we see this through words like, "curiosity." You know, Lanyon was curious.

He didn't know anything about him, but he was curious to learn more.

But also the fact that he was describing, let's be honest, quite a dehumanising way.

He wasn't described as a person, just as a thing, something.

It feels very dismissive and very dehumanising of Hyde.

But it really does highlight what an kind of an unknown entity Hyde was to Lanyon.

Well done if you spotted that these quotations could really be useful in showing that even though Lanyon didn't know anything about Hyde, he felt a sense of danger.

And he felt that his life could have been at risk because he kept his hand ready on his weapon.

He also raised his arm to shield him.

So when the transformation was happening, he covered himself 'cause he didn't, he kind of cowered away, wanted to protect himself.

Obviously, there was this innate, internal feeling of, "I could be in danger here, this man could be or this creature could be a danger to me." But interestingly, did you spot these things about it being a cautionary warning? I think we've got to really take into account that Dr.

Lanyon is a scientist, okay? And we know he's a scientist who disagrees with Jekyll's methodologies.

So the fact that he found Hyde to be so disgusting and he was so terrified of him, really shows how much Lanyon and particularly this quotation at the end when we know this quotation happens.

"Now Lanyon knows the truth." Lanyon is terrified about the truth.

In fact, it keeps him up all day and all night.

And as we know actually leads him to dying.

That's really is a warning about the dangers of unfettered like, uncapped, unstopped, scientific experimentation.

Well done if you spotted those things.

Let's double check then that we are all confident about what these quotations from chapter nine show us about Mr. Hyde.

So, which quotations from the list below make Hyde seem like an unknown entity? Pause the video, read through the quotations.

Decide which ones you think is correct and then press play when you are ready to continue.

Well done if you said B and C, both of those we could say argue that Hyde is an unknown entity.

He creates a curiosity within Lanyon, but he's also described in this dehumanising way as "something," well done if you spotted that.

Now let's have a think which words might make Hyde seem like a cautionary warning.

Pause the video, have a think and press play when you are ready to continue.

Welcome back, well done if you said B and D.

Lanyon acknowledging that he's a curiosity, but it's a disgusting one.

And then obviously when we know the transformation, that kind of, that the raising of the arm could be a physical protection, but it could be kind of more symbolic of Lanyon realising that he has to protect the world or the world is in danger from the scientific experiments of Jekyll.

Well done if you said that, that was challenging.

check for and standing there.

Okay, over to our final task of today's lesson and we really want to think about how Hyde has been presented across the novella.

Now obviously we very much focused on chapter four and chapter nine, but I would like to see you also using your knowledge of the text to see if you can plug some gaps in between.

So what we're gonna do is we're gonna plot, we're gonna plot Hyde's progression on this line.

So we can start at the very beginning from Enfield's description of him in chapter one.

We can look at the end of chapter two for Utterson's first impressions of him.

We can think about chapter four, which we've looked at together, when Carew is murdered.

You can think about Lanyon's meeting with Hyde, which technically happens around chapter six, but we don't find out about it until chapter nine.

And of course, if you want to then go on to think about Jekyll's statement, you can as well.

What I would really like you to do is you plot these ideas on the on the line.

I want you to try and use these useful phrases that we've been using all lesson.

And of course today's outcome was all focused on well selected quotations.

So I really want you to think about which quotations you're gonna use to prove the statements you're gonna make.

So let's make some statements about Hyde thinking about how he's presented across the novella and support each of those with some really well selected quotations.

You can of course use some that we've looked at in today's lesson, but it'd be great to see you flicking through your copy of the novella and find some other quotations too.

Pause the video, gives yourselves plenty of time on this activity and press play when you're ready to continue.

Okay, well done.

What we're gonna do now, we're gonna look at the piece of work that we have done and we are gonna give ourselves a what went well, something that we've done well and an EBI, something we can focus on next time, even better if.

So, I've given you a list of statements and I want you to pick one of these that you think you've done well and one of these that you want to work on.

Now, one of the eight pupils gave me a little bit of advice.

They said when selecting a what went well, they always start at the bottom of the list because the list starts from the easiest skill and it goes down to the hardest skill.

So they say, "Well, if I start the bottom of the list, I'm gonna look for the the hardest thing that I have done well." And I think that's a great tip.

But when they're looking for their EBI, when they're looking for their target, they always start at the top of the list 'cause they want to look at the most straightforward skill that they've maybe not quite mastered yet.

So look at this list of what went well of things to work on or things that you might have done well.

Select one that you have done well and select one that is gonna be a target for next time.

Pause the video, do some self-reflection and press play when you're ready to continue.

Okay, well done some fantastic self-reflection there.

That's it, we are now at the end of the lesson.

You have done a fantastic job today really thinking about the character of Hyde, how he's been presented, and most importantly, finding excellent quotations.

Quotations that are really analyzable to use to support all of your arguments.

On the screen, you can see a summary of our learning today.

So we've talked about how at different times in the novella Hyde is presented as a being an unknown entity.

We also know others that Hyde's been presented as a dangerous assailant.

And we see this particularly during the murder of Carew.

Arguably, we can argue that Hyde also acts as a cautionary warning against the limitless scientific development.

And we also talked about how we select quotations and we need to consider the overarching impression, any larger methods used, and also think about which specific words are right for analysis.

Fantastic work today.

Really pleased you've joined me with today's lesson.

I hope to see you in a future lesson, but whatever you're doing with the rest of your day, I hope you enjoy it.

Have a great day.

Thank you, and see you all soon.
