Pig Heart Boy – Novel Study Resource (Malorie Blackman)

Includes: 175-slide PowerPoint, 25 Worksheets & Teacher Notes

Bring Pig Heart Boy to life in your classroom with this flexible and engaging KS2/3 teaching resource based on Malorie Blackman’s thought-provoking novel. Designed for Year 5/6 pupils, the unit offers a wide range of reading and writing activities, including grammar, punctuation, and vocabulary tasks.

Structured in line with the novel’s chronology, the resource is intended to be adaptable — teachers can pick and choose activities that best suit their class, rather than follow a set sequence. Many tasks can be reused at different points in the novel for consolidation or deeper exploration.

This cross-curricular unit also offers strong links to science topics, making it ideal for thematic or topic-based learning.
