Term 2 Novel Study

By Anonymous -

This term I have been reading and studying the novel Run by Linda Aksomitis
I found this novel interesting because of all the different thing happening in it at one time it makes me want to read more.
During the novel I had to complete a thinking map which shows that I can classify how the author has shown the theme of the book.


National Standard this covers


  • Year 7/8  Standard
    • I can identify and evaluate the way writers’ use language and ideas to suit their purpose and I can use my growing wide range of academic and content-specific vocabulary to understand texts.


Overall I would give this novel a rating of  10/10 and I would recommend it to others to read because I is a great book to read if you like to learn about polio and because It make you want to read on and on.

Design your own challenge: Poem about my council trip. They walked out of school, in the direction of the pool, And waited there for the bus. When it finally came, they hopped on to claim their  comfortable seats. They set off on their expedition, and gained permission, to enter the Christchurch City Council. When they stride inside, they try to abide, and enjoy their time with the guide. After a slideshow, they got to know, some professionals that work there. Each group learn't something new, and conversed as they chew, their morning tea. After that they do some activities, in some cases involving festivities, they share back to the group. Then they go to the chamber, now here's a disclaimer, It was as fun as can be! Then not too later, they met a nice waiter, in a place called Hachi Hachi. They ate their food, all in a good mood, then they go down to the town square. After a bit of walking, and a little ta...
