Stone Cold: KS3 Activity Pack

This attractive booklet of worksheets offers fun and exciting tasks for every chapter of the novel Stone Cold.

Each chapter’s activities are presented with appealing fonts and pictures relevant to the novel’s themes, while a brief commentary on some of the more difficult tasks is included for teachers not familiar with the novel.

It offers an extensive array of activities which lend themselves effectively to the practice of both reading and writing skills. The breadth of different skills that are encouraged... is excellent

Features a huge array of tasks, which vary from comprehension questions to media activities, and creative writing projects to challenging quizzes.

Worksheets maintain a level of differentiation by presenting a more challenging aspect of work at the end of each chapter’s activities, plus extension activities for the more able students.

The author clearly has a strong awareness of what works in practice for pupils and teachers

practical and useful resource, suggesting purposeful activities for pupils. Helped to create a complete scheme of work on this novel in a matter of days... It is well structured with easily adapted resources.

L Thomas, Teacher and Satisfied Customer

I liked this resource and would find it very useful. I liked the wide range and variety of the tasks as this would appeal to pupils. I was also particularly pleased to see the constant references to using supporting quotations.

P Moore, HoD and Peer Reviewer

Brilliant – would be useful to supplement a teacher’s scheme of work. There is such a wide range of activities; reading and writing skills can be developed using these worksheets often with little teacher input.

J Sharrock, Teacher and Peer Reviewer

I think this is a very attractive resource for any department using this novel. It offers an extensive array of activities which lend themselves effectively to the practice of both reading and writing skills.

This a thorough and conscientiously prepared resource that keeps in mind the needs of both pupils and teachers. The breadth of different skills that are encouraged... is excellent. Brilliant for the tired teacher! The author clearly has a strong awareness of what works in practice for pupils and teachers. I was particularly impressed by the conscientiousness of the author in putting two sets of activities/questions on each page - both environmentally friendly and department budget friendly! It's been a pleasure to review this resource.

A good resource: good value, a range of useful activities and differentiated tasks.
