Grade 10 Setbooks: Study Guides and Revision Tasks

Choose an English or Kiswahili title and the skill you want to practise. These collections use questions, evidence checks and answer plans to help you move from remembering a story to explaining its meaning.

A Spider’s Web

Kirikinto has a route to recognition through acting, yet intimidation and the appeal of money make other forms of acceptance powerful. Read his development by comparing what he wants with the price of obtaining it.

Dear Mama

The mother cannot answer the letters, but direct address gives the narrator someone to speak to. This creates a relationship on the page that survives physical absence.

Dreams Denied

Mwitu treats criticism as a threat to his standing. The consequences of county policies expose the difference between keeping approval and meeting public needs.

Jahazi la Mchongoma

Rashid ana usukani lakini Mulika anaonyesha umuhimu wa kujiandaa na kusikiliza. Tofauti hii inamsaidia msomaji kupima uongozi kwa matendo.

Mlemavu? Sio Mimi

Anwani inakataa kufupisha utu wa mtu kwa hali ya viungo. Kusoma maisha ya msimulizi kunahitaji kuona uwezo pamoja na vikwazo vya kijamii.
