The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas Novel Study
By Sarah Hodgson
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas novel study for Years 7–8, built on The Writing Revolution and aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9, US Common Core ELA and the UK National Curriculum. A 10-week unit with a combined teacher and student booklet, lesson plans, modelled responses, differentiation tips for every activity, and built-in catch-up weeks. Print or project, with no extra prep. Every chapter follows the same activity sequence: key vocabulary, a summary sentence, because / but / so, sentences and notes, a Single Paragraph Outline, and a full paragraph with revision. The routine stays the same, so students spend their thinking on the book, not on working out what each new worksheet is asking. Two boys on opposite sides of a fence during the Holocaust. A powerful entry point into history, injustice and empathy, handled with care for older readers. Made by Sarah Hodgson, teacher librarian, not AI. I read every word of every book and write every question and model response myself.
