Welcome

Welcome 9.5 to our Deadly Unna? blog.

This blog is your online opportunity to develop your understanding of the novel, share your ideas with other members of 9.5 and demonstrate your literay skills to me.

Each Monday period one you will asked to log onto this blog and undertake a task (a record of taks completion will be kept). You can access this blog from home so at anytime you can finish any incomplete tasks.

To get the most out of this blog, you need to make sure you keep up to date with your chapter summaries and reading of Deadly Unna? I also encourage you to pose questions to the class and myself about Deadly Unna? and the tasks.

A word about blogger manners - this blog is a school based task therefore any inappropriate language, photos or derogatory comments will not be tolerated by myself or any member of 9.5. There will be consquences for inappropriate behavior.

So, what are you waiting for, create an account and get bloggin!

Bloggers of the week!

Well done Dane, Damien, Jake and Christian for finishing all blog tasks so far.


These tasks are designed to help you think about the novel and the theme of growing up - which will be the topic of your essay assessment task. It is worth reading your classmates comments because they might give you some good ideas for your essay.


I enjoy reading your thoughts on the blog posts. It is interesting that many of you thought that Blacky's growing up is similar to the theme 'from little things big things grow'. It is also worth thinking about the connections between Deadly Unna? and the racial issues in the novel and the indigenous land rights battle that the Paul Kelly song is about.


Well done 9.5!
