These resources are designed to accompany a whole class or independent reading of the 2023 Children’s Book Of The Year Award-shortlisted novel Runt by Australian author Craig Silvey.

Included in this package:

·      Comprehension worksheets for use before and after reading that explore the major characters, settings, plot and themes of the novel. Includes a focus activity exploring the concept of protagonists and antagonists.

·      A Compare and Contrast Venn diagram worksheet for students to compare Runt to another novel they have recently read.

·      A vocabulary package featuring one complex word from each chapter of the novel for students to define throughout a reading of the text. We’ve also included a blank template for this worksheet that students can use to write down challenging vocabulary they discover independently.
