The Collector
Lesson plan by Jamie Fein
Day 7
What’s on for today:
Today we are going to read a grocery list of words and then
we are going to read passages from The
Collector. I am then going to ask
them to write everything word in the order that they remember it. The focus is on how much credit do we give the narrator for speaking the truth.
What to do:
- The
students will listen to the teacher read a list of words and be asked to
pay attention to the words
- students
will then read pages 52-56 each student will read a paragraph at a time
- The
class will discuss the concept of beauty and how it does ex. Photograph,
butterflies, darkness etc.
- Students
will then be asked to write down all of the words that they remember from
the list
- Teacher
will explain that the same concept applies to Ferdinand and Miranda as
narrators, do they really remember exactly what is being said or done, or
are they making up their own truth?
Homework:
Read pg75-90
The class was a success:
- if the
students understand that the language is not truth
