The Heaven Shop is appropriate for grades 7 to 9, reluctant high school readers, and ESL students as a text for independent reading, guided reading, or literature circles. It can also be used as a whole class novel to teach reading strategies and to explore the issue of orphans and families affected by HIV/AIDS.
The Teacher’s Guide is divided into 21 sections. Each section contains a plot summary, guiding questions for pre- and post-reading discussion, and an extension activity. The pre- and post-reading questions are meant to assess literal comprehension, as well as extend thinking and encourage inference. The extension activities are designed to help students develop understanding and compassion for children affected by HIV/AIDS.
