Description
Greetings,
Welcome to The Marrow Thieves.
Cherie Dimaline’s novel is an award-winning, fast paced escape story, coming-of-age tale, and dystopian warning all rolled into one. Students easily engage with the cast of relatable characters, plot twists, and timely topics/themes. They’ll be turning the pages so quickly reading that you’ll need Band-Aids on hand for the paper cuts.
This 166-page resource covers all four strands: reading, writing, oral, and media. It builds your students’ foundational knowledge, and develops critical thinking, and creative communication skills. Students interact with the text and one another in group and class discussions. It puts students in the centre of the action and learning, and enables you to do what teachers do best -- spend time and energy with the students to inform, inspire, ignite.
Students have multiple opportunities to escape boredom and showcase their learning, and teachers have plenty of evaluation options to assist and assess students.
* Complete the Research—Action—Change Group Project
* Complete the 63-page Student Escape Guide.
* Complete the 100 Question Multiple Choice Test and optional Matching Test.
* Complete the Agree-Disagree – Explain Test.
* Actively engage in the Spiral Learning Revolution with three options.
I designed the "Survival Challenge" as a pre--reading activity to engage students before reading the novel. Take the challenge yourself and see how you do. It sparked a lot of thought and discussion with family and friends, and it will in your class too.
Get started. The Recruiters are coming. I just saw one in the clearing.
