In my Year 10 English class, we’ve recently completed a unit of work on the book “A Bridge to Wiseman’s Cove” by James Moloney.
Here’s the resources that I’ve prepared for this book, which you may find useful to use with your classes.
Introductory Activities - designed to be used after reading the first approx 80-100 pages.
Major Assignment- designed to be used after completing the book.
Book Review- a fairly generic sheet on preparing book reviews for students.

Here’s some work that I’ve used with my Year 11 English class as part of a study of the movie “The Truman Show”. There are some short answer questions which you could modify and adapt for younger audiences, or the extended response questions could be used as an oral presentation rather than as a written response.

Apart from the first two days of school, I’ve been teaching at a local high school every day, in Society and Environment, English and Information Processing, which has greatly restricted my free time.
On the plus side, it’s been a great experience so far and I’ll be posting some teacher resources up here in the next few days that I have been creating for my classes, for you to use, modify, adapt and critique.
Also, apologies for the change in the look of the site - I upgraded to WordPress 2.71 and it reset the changes that I’d made to the theme.
