What can you find out about the books
Do some research and find out what you can about the books we will be reading in this class. You can look on you tube, review spark notes, find character anaylysis, webpage discussions or ask someone who has read the book. Find what every you can and write a comment about what you think the book will be about and if you think you will like it. Finally how do you think it will fit into our class discussion about social skills. I need two comments a paragraph each about the two books

ReplyDeleteWell from what i have searched it looks like Speak is about some high schooler going through some troubled times.
As for The Body of Christopher Creed it looks to be a mystery story of some type.

ReplyDeleteFrom the search that have conducted Speak is about a teenage girl that was exposed to a misfortunate situation that included an illegal teenage activity. She hid her misfortune while exposing the illegal activity to the police which in result has gained the hatred of everyone at her school. The book exposes the delima of a victim turned guilty because of social norms. I hope that studying this book in class to inform us as teens about the proper ways to handle similiar situations responsibly.
The second book The Body of Christopher Creed is about the strange disappearance of a student and the group of students who investigate the extremly tangled story. The story might tell us that events that happen to us at young age could have a very long lasting and bad effect on us for years to come. I hpe that studying the book in class will give us more insight into the true meaning of the story and strategies to help us cope with similiar events.

ReplyDeleteI was going to say the something as Mj on both books.
