Vad handlade texten om?

Självklart hade vi stannat upp och inför varje tillfälle repeterat vad som hänt senast vi läste, för att se till att vi hänger med. Men jag vill ju se till att eleverna verkligen har greppat historien. Jag hade kunnat dela ett dokument med frågor som eleverna skulle besvara i skrift. Men jag kan ju se framför mig hur eleverna suckar. Jag vill att eleverna arbetar tillsammans, att de lär ihop, och att samtalen gör att historien växer.

Jag har själv hunnit läsa igenom just den här versionen tre gånger, jag såg musikalen nyligen och har arbetat med texten tidigare. Det viktiga är inte exakt hur lapparna är placerade, utan samtalen.

" Although Haddon does not specifically name Christopher's condition, it is widely understood that he has Asperger's syndrome. Students should know about this autism spectrum disorder and its common characteristics, but be aware that Christopher's behaviors are not indicative of how all people with Asperger's act. With this background, students can discuss communication obstacles that Christopher faces regularly. They should examine how people interact with him and whether they take his differences into account. This can open a broader discussion about mental illness or difference, including how it is perceived by society, how it can be used to define people, how it affects family members, and how people can live full and satisfying lives despite difficulties they face.

Given the complexity of the story, however, the focus in a written test like this naturally has to be narrowed down. Next year, when I may be using the novel again, the test may look quite differently. Lordoftheflies101013b. Poets.org. Hjälten och Jag. Student Materials: Literary Elements Map.
