GRADE 11 HL and SL - FUN ORAL QUIZ GOD OF SMALL THINGS CLASS THURSDAY 31ST - see Edupage Thursday class

Hi Students of Grade X1 HL and SL
This is my Lesson for tomorrow Thursday.
The class will be divided into two teams for an oral quiz - no written test. ONLY CHAPTER 1 so quite easy to prepare for actually.
I have put the details on edupage for tomorrow's class as a homework but I think of it more as a fun student centred learning activity 😊

However by now you should have read most or all of the book :)

This second link below has a great summary and character profile and themes of the book.
