QuickQuiz 5 Kernowland in Erthwurld

QuickQuiz 5 for the Kernowland in Erthwurld books now available
        
We're now setting more quizzes for the Kernowland in Erthwurld series so that you can try them in class or at home. This is the fifth QuickQuiz, 5 questions with written answers.


QuickQuiz 4 is now available
Some quizzes will be based on specific chapters in specific books, so that you can read the chapters and then have a go at answering the questions knowing that the answers will be found in those few pages.

Then other quizzes will be quite a bit harder because the answers to the questions will only be found somewhere in one whole book.

Other quizzes will be a lot harder because the questions will come from any of the six books in the series.

If you would like to use the Kernowland ebooks for doing the quizzes on your computer or other reading device, the ebooks are currently available via Amazon for less than £2 each. See the banner below for details...


If you prefer printed books, see Kernowland discount offers currently available on our Amazon store:


As well as this QuickQuiz, there are other quizzes - with multiple choice answers (A, B, or C) - to try...

Quiz 1: 10 Questions from Book 1, Chapter 1
Quiz 2: 10 Questions from Book 1, Chapters 2-5
Quiz 3: 10 Questions from Book 1, Chapters 6-10
Quiz 4: 10 Questions from Book 1, Chapters 11-20

Please feel free to share a quiz or add it to your own school or other website. Simply right-click the quiz images to copy/save the quizzes to your computer.

I hope you enjoy trying the quizzes.

Video of Skype Visit to Oakridge School in India

Jack Trelawny Channel - Short Video of Skype Visit to Oakridge International School, Hyderabad, India
Oakridge International School, Hyderabad, India
        

On 28th March I conducted a SKYPE Author School Visit with the children of Oakridge International School in Hyderabad, India.
There have been a lot of schools asking for visits but I'm finding it hard to get to all the schools as well as writing the new Thirteen Things series of books. 
Jack Trelawny during Skype Visit to Oakridge International School
SKYPE visits seem to be a good solution, especially for UK schools a long way from London and for international schools outside the UK.
The talk was at 8.00 a.m. UK time because of the time difference. It was 1.30 p.m. at their school in India.
I spoke to the children about the work of an author and answered questions about my job and my stories.
I have already physically visited over 1,000 schools in the UK but, using this technology, many more schools can have an author visit.
I think it's fantastic that these video-link SKYPE visits can be for schools in the UK or anywhere else in the world.
The full address of the school is: Oakridge International School: Newton Campus, Khajaguda, Nanakramguda Road, Cyberabad, Hyderabad - 500008, Andhra Pradesh, INDIA.
School website: www.oakridge.in/newton. 

To arrange a Skype Author Visit to your school, contact Jane Bennett, Events Manager, at Campion Books (Publishers) via info@campionpublishing.com.
