===Researching ''The Handmaid's Tale''===
The dystopian novel ''The Handmaid's Tale'' (1985) was written by Margaret Atwood. In this novel, Atwood paints a very negative picture of our future: characterised by the oppression of women and very conservative gender roles.


The following article deals with the background that, among other things, motivated Margaret Atwood to write this novel. Read the article carefully and answer the questions below in a Word document.  
===Chapter 1 - First Impression===
Read the first chapter of the novel. Then go to Padlet (https://padlet.com/s1038373/i0rjc3adne5qwgip), think of 1-3 adjectives and 1-3 nouns related to your first impression of the novel. Post your chosen words in the columns.
