Next Novel Reflection due Tuesday May 1st

Based on the conversation in your small group novel discussion, please complete another novel reflection for Tuesday May 1st. As with your previous novel reflection, please generate your own inquiry question that engages a major theme in the novel and is general enough that you can bring in your own experiences and connections to our world today. This novel reflection should be at least 300 words and incorporate direct quotes from the book.

One way to formulate a question is to use sentence frames as follows:

In what ways does (insert theme)?
e.g., In what ways does fear effect human behavior?

Under what conditions do groups (insert human behavior)?
e.g., Under what conditions do we see those that use intimidation and the threat of violence most able to dominate the leadership of a group? 

Why do (insert theme) occur in (particular situation)?
e.g., Why would people still believe in the American dream even when few realize this dream?
Why do we glorify soldiers when they kill, but condemn murder in everyday society? Is this a good thing for our society?

April 24th Update: due dates, rubrics, and examples


1. Multiple Perspectives in History due by the end of the second period Tuesday, April 24th.

As part of your multiple perspectives unit, you are asked to use the examples provided to respond to this this inquiry question:

Using examples from  The story of the Three Little Pigs, told from the Wolf's perspectiveSame facts; two historical perspectives,  The Sentry by Fredric Brown and this this image, what are some ways we can determine from whose perspective a story is being told? Provide multiple examples to support your response and create a picture or design that reflects a theme in your response. 

You will be assessed based on your ability to show from which perspective a story is being told. Your reflection should be at least 250 words and include multiple examples drawn from the resources provided to back up your responses.


Consider: Who is telling the story? How can you tell?

Areas to consider:

When reading text, how does the author represent his or her group? How are other groups represented? What language is used by the author to describe his group and that of other groups?

In an image, who is the focus of the picture? What group does this person belong to? What details show that this group is the focus and shown in a positive way? What details show that other groups are given less attention and/or are shown in a more negative light?

Reflection starter: Some ways we can determine from whose perspective a story is being told is through examining the language and the focus of a story or image. For example, in the image above you can see.. . Similarly, on the left you can see that..... In a similar way in the story the Sentry we know who is writing the story because.... The author states, "   "describing the aliens as " ". This is also true in the story of the Dust Bowl where in one instance the event is described as "   ".


2. Second Novel Study Reflection Due Wednesday, April 25th. 


To bring some more structure to our novel study, you are asked to increase your reflection to a minimum of 250-300 words. The emphasis is provide a deep reflection and strong supporting evidence to back up your insights. To help guide your reflection you are asked to respond to a specific powerful question. This can be one you generate or come from ones used as discussion questions. A strong reflection question is one that:


  • engages a major theme in the novel (e.g., the nature of friendship, the dark side of human nature)
  • asks you to give a personal opinion on an issue. For example, the questions below asks the writer to consider whether we as humans have an inner savage that is only kept under control by the rules and norms of civilization. Without this we would become barbaric and treat each other cruelly. 
  • Is a question that goes beyond the novel where you can use experiences in your own life and other things you have read or seen to respond to the question. 


In order to back up your insights you are asked to provide supporting details from various sources including the novel itself, experiences you have had, or things you have read about or heard about in the news and media. Here is an example of what I am looking for:


Reflection question: In what ways does Jack's hunting mask reveal the author's understanding of human nature? Is this view of human nature accurate?


One of the passages in the book that really spoke to me was as follows: "He knelt, holding the shell of water. A rounded patch of sunlight fell on his face and a brightness appeared in the depths of the water. He looked in astonishment, no longer at himself but at an awesome stranger. He spilt the water and leapt to his feet, laughing excitedly. Beside the mere, his sinewy body held up a mask that drew their eyes appalled them. He began to dance and his laughter became a bloodthirsty snarling. He capered towards Bill and the mask was a thing on its own, behind which Jack hid, liberated from shame and self-consciousness" (p. 56, Lord of the Flies). I believe that the quote above speaks powerfully to me because of how it relates to the theme about the dark side of human nature, and it is a vital turning point in the story. The author states: ‘he began to dance and his laughter became a bloodthirsty snarling’, and I think that this shows that Jack is starting to turn savage and barbaric. The short excerpt above shows the authors view on human nature, that he believes that humans without structure, authority, and laws are ruthless and barbaric savages. In the beginning of the book, all the boys said they would have rules, and they started working together by making a fire. Eventually, the some of the boys discontinued their work, which was Jack’s choir that stopped tending the fire to go and hunt. Also, when Simon and Jack are building shelter, nobody else is helping, and they are just playing in the water, building sand castles. Jack starts getting preoccupied with the thought of hunting, and disregards that they need to tend the fire, and he brings along his choir to hunt. I think that Jack contrasts Ralph; Ralph represents civilization, that power should be used for a good use, that benefits everyone. Jack on the other hand represents savagery; that power is used in a horrible way, taking advantage of others, using others as servants to achieve his desires and for amusement, like Piggy. 

I think Jack reminds me of bullies in everyday school; Jack teases Piggy to make himself look better, like a ‘cool jock’ would in school. Those with power seem to often be the ones that most abuse this power by putting others down. For these people it makes them feel superior to others and they take pleasure in this. Similarly, in the story Jack tells Piggy to shut up when he is talking, and he broke his specs. Overall, this I think this paragraph speaks out to me because it seems like a key point in the book, and it shows how people turn into savages when there is no authority. I don't think our own situation here is much different, without proper authority our community at CSS could just as easily descend into savagery and chaos.
