Year 9 English
This term we have started reading our extended text The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne.
This is a very clever World War 2 story told through the eyes of a nine year old boy called Bruno. The novel tells a very tragic story of the horror of the concentration camps and the value of friendship. I have encouraged the studentsd to do independent research into Nazi Germany and the Holocaust and would appreciate any disscussion at home on the topics of discrimination.
The students will have 3 weeks to complete the novel and will be asked to write an essay at the units completion.
I have attached chapter question sheets, should they be misplaced, that can be printed at home.
Chapters 5 and 6
Chapter 7 and 8
Chapters 9 and 10
