1 Help students imagine what it might be like if they had to stay in their bedroom for a whole year.They could not leave it even to go to the WC or get a cup of tea.How would they feel?
2 Ask students if they are only allowed to have five things with you in the hiding place because there is very little room, what would they choose?
3 Ask students to guess why the windows had to stay closed.
4 Consider what Anne means by the word \"crazy.\" In this context, \"crazy\" has the informal meaning of \"enthusiastic\" but its formal meaning is \"mad.\" However, be sure to give the students the chance to explore the possible meanings for this word before explaining it to them (if necessary).
5 In the same way, ask the students to consider what \"spellbound\" means.In this context it means \"to concentrate with delight for some time.\"
Alternatively, you could ask students to tell you what is the main idea for each paragraph.Make sure that they do it in one sentence.This is very useful because it is making them analyze what is important and what is not.It also makes them produce a concise answer.
3 Discussion of ideas
This is where the students should discuss the ideas put forward in the reading passage.They should think whether they agree or disagree with the writer.It does not matter whether they agree or disagree.What is important is that they have a reason for what they say.So encourage them to put forward their own ideas, either criticizing the text or using it as a support.Think about:
1 What you would do if your family were going to be killed just because they did something the Emperor did not like?
2 Where would you plan to hide?
3 How would you arrange to get food given to you every day?
4 What would you do to pass the time?
4 Discussion of style
This is where the students begin to use the text to help their own writing.So it is important to ask the students:
1 What do you think is the purpose of this passage? Why did Anne write it?
2 Do you think it is successful? Do you understand Anne\'s feelings?
3 What is Anne\'s tone? In other words, is the author angry, sad, happy or thrilled?
4 What is Anne\'s point of view? Do you agree with it? If so, why? If not, why not?
The last question you should ask is about the quality of the language.So ask students if there are any phrases or sentences that they feel explain a situation or problem, or describe a person or place particularly well.This is a part of the lesson that you can share with your students.There are no right or wrong answers.It is a time to enjoy the reading together.
COMPREHENDING
These exercises are intended to encourage students to be active readers.In other words, they should read and work out the answers.Not all the information can be found in the reading but there are certain clues that students can use to provide an appropriate answer.In fact, the questions go beyond literal understanding to give students practice in making inferences. |
