Revolver, by Marcus Sedgwick: chpts 6-8

More Revolver resources as requested! I love this book and have read it many times - it balances memorable description, clever structuring and important life-lessons in a toe-sweating thriller. Short chapters - and the topic - make it ideal reading for boy heavy classes from y7-y9. The idea of the series is to make available a range of tasks to suit where you get to - doing every single task may get in the way of reading. We begin with a short self mark test on chapter 6 - ideal as a starter after previous reading. Alternatively, a wanted poster makes a good homework task. Chapter 7 introduces students to allusion with a note handout either to help the teacher or as notes for the exercise book. Chapter 8’s short self mark starter makes students aware of the novel’s structure through linking it’s opening sentence to both the previous chapter and the previous chapter of that story strand.
