Small Steps by Louis Sachar: Novel Study

Overall rating 4 out of 54.3 (9 ratings)

Last updated 08 April 2013, created 14 September 2009, viewed 7,110

A resource with a series of lessons based around a whole class reading of Louis Sachar’s novel ‘Small Steps’. This is only ‘part one’ of the complete unit, going from an introduction where students watch the film HOLES and discuss (Can do a S&L assessment), and then introduce the novel More…and read Chapters 1 - 7, with comprehension questions and empathetic writing tasks. I will continue to upload as I create the unit.

Excellent resource for early chapters of book. Very interesting and relevant work based on book. I am just starting this novel with my class but you seemed to hae stopped uploading after the opening chapters. Great resource though thanks :)

Can't wait to read it!. These look excellent for my upcoming 'reading hour'. Do you have the rest of the chapters at all?
