Full 37 page work booklet that can be printed as individual activities used as a whole. Contains chapter questions and activities related to each section of the book, Chinese Cinderella. I used this in conjunction with the Audible recording of the novel so students could hear the author herself read the book.

Troll Hunters - Genre Studies

To engage a challenging class in English studies, I made use of the Troll Hunter series on Netflix and linked it to the skills and knowledge they required for their assessment tasks. The unit specifically focused on Genres and this series incorporates a number of genres and English language techniques (such as allegory, metaphor, foreshadowing, allusion etc) as well as great vocabulary.

Companion to the novel Dougy, addressing the issues the book brings up including the dangers of a single story. Highly recommend this novel study in Australian schools.
