“The Tell-Tale Heart” Teacher’s Bundle
“The Tell-Tale Heart” is a very powerful short story with depth and insight. However, it is also challenging for many students to really understand the depth and imagery created by Edgar Allan Poe in this masterpiece. This was my motivation to dedicate a package specifically for the education system, targeting the instructional needs of middle and high school literature/English teachers. This package provides students with a 3d animated film to help visualize the story, as well as, resources for teachers to further their students absorption and interest of The Tell-Tale Heart and Edgar Allan Poe.:
