Born a Crime Pre-Reading Activity Trevor Noah: Prepare Students for Novel Topics

Born a Crime Pre-Reading Activity contains instructions for Pecha Kucha Presentations, which is a much more interesting technique for presentations than the usual PowerPoints. Detailed instructions are given. A grading rubric for the teacher and an evaluation checklist for the students are also included.

There are 18 topics relating to the book for students to explore. Those are ready to be printed from this packet. You may decide to randomly hand out topics or allow students to select which they are most interested in. Students research their topics and obtain a few facts about the topic they are assigned to. This can be done individually, in partners, or small groups.

This activity will get them ready to read Born a Crime! While reading, they will be able to better connect with aspects of the book because they are more familiar with topics such as tribes and languages of South Africa, apartheid's laws and restrictions, and other topics mentioned in the book.
