Day 16 LOTF

Chapter 11: Castle Rock

Do Now: To what earlier scene does Roger's unleashing the boulder relate? What was your reaction to this scene?

Today's Learning Target:

I will be able to use film literacy skills to consider how Peter Brook's adaptation of the novel handles important characters, symbols, and big ideas.

I will know that I have hit the learning target when...
-I can explain how specific choices Brook makes regarding camera shots or the soundtrack reveal ideas.
-I can make a connection between how a reader of a book and a viewer of a film make inferences.

Agenda: 

1. Chapter 11
2. The Importance of Piggy
3. Film Adaptation (33:40)

Homework: read p. 143 to the page break on p. 149 (the last line you will read is "One must remember to wake at first light, in order to diddle the savages - and he did not know how quickly sleep came and hurled him down a dark interior slope.") Annotate these pages and make at least one inference.
