Now is the Time for Running

A complete scheme of work following the emotional story of Deo and Innocent. Developed for a high flying Year 7 class, but easily adapted for Year 8 and 9, this scheme has plenty of background context for both Zimbabwean and South African cultural issues that are explored in this story. The chapters have a selection of comprehension questions, discussion points and writing stimuli to support your reading of this wonderful novel. This resource was deigned with pupils reading two chapters per lesson so additional material may be added if you prefer to take it one chapter at a time (28 chapters in the book).
