The pages that follow contain sample questions which might be used as a part of a wider project or text response for Year 9 or 10 students.
Please feel free to use or adapt these questions selectively.

Teachers may also wish to peruse the questions (particularly the Extended Questions/Tasks) for other books or films to see if there are other tasks they may wish to use in their classes.

We would welcome the contribution of further questions or sample work tasks on these or other texts.

Note: VCE and HSC teachers are warned that most of these texts are NOT on the "prescribed text" list!
