Teacher/student PowerPoint (to reduce printing if required)
Question by question breakdown
Supporting question booklets with mark scheme and revision tips

Trash Study Booklet
A ‘Trash’ study booklet that can be used as individual lessons or as a study guide to accompany students’ reading of the novel.

A great resource for students to use independently, too! This booklet includes reading and writing activities that students can complete after each chapter.
I created this booklet for my Year 8 class but can be used with other key stage 3 classes; all students can respond to the variety of activities, with the high prior attainers being challenged through the success criteria.
