This resource has been produced to support the teaching of ‘Boys Don’t Cry’ by Malorie Blackman at GCSE. Designed for whole-class teaching, so that the tier 2 and 3 vocabulary and metaphors can be explained to students without you having to keep stopping to explain what it all means. Pictures and diagrams are also included where relevant. This resource is suitable to support whole-class teaching, homework, revision, pre-teaching and independent reading of the book. This has been put together to boost the vocabulary of all students at all levels. It is particularly useful as an adaptive resource for students with EAL, ASD and hearing impairments. It is attractively, and simply presented, using a dyslexia-friendly font and background. This is an editable, 180-slide PowerPoint and a PDF version. Chapter headings and section dividers help you to find the relevant vocabulary quickly.
