Children's Literature in Film
POSTED: WEEK 9: 11/10/05


Dear Everyone,

I hope that you have survived the worst of mid-term exam week and are ready to start the second half of the semester with renewed energy! 

During the next week, I would like each group please to choose one of the following stories: 
ANNE OF GREEN GABLES
THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN
PETER PAN
HEIDI
LITTLE WOMEN
These stories are on our library's web program NAXOS Spoken Word Library. 

During the last six weeks of the semester your group will work on that story, which has also been adapted into a film. Each member of the group must be responsible to select and read two of the chapters. 

In the following weeks, I will be giving you handouts to help you to analyze both the written text and the film.  All of the above films are on VOD in our e-Learning center, if you want to view them, but please tell me which one you chose by Week 11 (November 25)

Have a nice week; I'll see you on Friday.

Sincerely,
Sister Marilyn Baker
