I have spent days making these powerpoints. There is absolutely nothing out there about the book Bone Talk by Candy Gourlay.
Here is what my 13 powerpoints cover:

The author Candy Gourlay and her book Bone Talk
The period and the setting of the book Bone Talk
Making predictions
Characterisation of the protagonist
The characterisation of Samkad’s father
Tension
How does Candy Gourlay create tension?
Empathy

Imperialism around the world
Tribal ceremonies
Generations clash
Story mountain and storyboard
Role Play and Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart
I included excerpts, pictures, tasks, extensions etc… It is all there. Enjoy!
I created 6 scaffolded lessons for children in year 9 who really struggle with understanding of how to write PEZEL paragraphs etc… You will find about 50 plus tasks. I hope you enjoy! These resources go with dystopia, utopia, The giver, The right word etc… There are tables, mind maps, scaffolded lessons, scaffolded PEZEL, pictures etc… Many hours have gone into this. All tasks are differentiated.
It took me days to complete this. I was tasked to write the whole unseen poetry module for KS3/4 year 9. I prepared 24 lessons with a detailed scheme of work, a formative and summative assessments and finally model answers, for each lesson, colour coded etc…
This is worth hours of work. I hope I can save you this pain for just a few pounds.
I would be surprised if you find this bundle needs improving.
You will find a lovely array of different themes poems from old age, to relationships, love and more serious societal issues. I cannot imagine you would be after anything more detailed. I even factored in all the HW for a total of 6 weeks lessons, 4 lessons per week.
