Trash by Andy Mulligan - 18 lesson unit covering the whole book

This product is titled “Trash by Andy Mulligan – 18 lessons covering the whole book.”

This is an 85-page PowerPoint which includes 18 lessons on the excellent children’s novel Trash, by Andy Mulligan. Based in Manila, three dumpsite children embark on a journey once they discover a wallet, a key and a map. Along the way they are chased by police and the authorities in a bid to reveal Vice President Zapanta’s corruption. It is beautifully written and perfect reading material for high school English students. Themes covered include social justice, poverty, and corruption.

Each lesson I have put together includes a starter activity, comprehension questions, extension thinking activities, a main activity, and a lesson plenary. Everything is in one PowerPoint so its easy for you to follow and reading homework is set at the end of each lesson. Every lesson comes with clear aims and objectives too.

I created this series of lessons whilst teaching English in Manila and so it means a lot to me to share it with fellow teachers. Please note you do need to purchase a class set of the books (or a digital copy of the book) to accompany this set of English lessons. The novel is now a major motion picture also.

Wishing you a terrific day.
