Boy Everywhere: The Ultimate Shared Reading Teaching Companion

A complete teacher support resource for delivering high-quality whole-class reading in KS3 English.

Transform your shared reading lessons with this comprehensive, ready-to-use teaching companion for Boy Everywhere by A. M. Dassu.

Designed to be used alongside the novel, this PowerPoint allows teachers to dip in and out of the slides before, during and after reading each chapter.
