This paper is constructed and is based on exploration of the natural world. This might work particularly well for boys as it is engaging (and a little gruesome, in parts).

KS3/4 'We are all Completely Beside Ourselves' by Karen Joy Fowler (3 of 6)

This resource explores the third Part of this curious novel investigating literary devices, close textual reading, character studies, intertextuality, an excellent SMSC task inference, comprehension and a concluding activity involving creating a cartoon storyboard to support students engagement with the structure of this section of the novel., This powerpoint offers inks to International Mark Schemes (if required). This book is unusual and engaging, as such it would make an excellent Reading Group study, Extra Curricular Reading Study, Stretch and Challenge, independent novel study, exemplar of ‘how to’ teach a novel for an NQT and a great resource to use for KS3 tutoring or teaching alike.

This response is designed for use with the Cambridge International iGCSE (UK and US) and is equally suitable to use with a Key stage 3 or 4 group to build on their reading skills, analytical skills and response writing skills. This resource includes the PDF of the short story and offers a complete route through this narrative set in 1960s South Africa, as such this would be an ideal text to draw on for Black History Month (October) too.
