Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use as a 30-45 minute review session after students finish the novel, dividing the class into teams and having them answer in the form of a question.
- Discussion question: How does Nya's daily walk to fetch water reflect the larger challenges facing Sudanese communities, and why does that matter to Salva's story?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Provide a brief chapter summary sheet or allow teams to consult their notes, and pair students who are less confident with a stronger reader.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to write their own higher-point clue on a theme like hope or resilience, then justify why it deserves the top value.
- Estimated time: about 35 minutes for one full board, plus a few minutes to tally scores and reflect on the answers.
