anthology and book talk

Back on the 24th August I asked you to borrow a novel of YOUR choice to read this term....

Hopefully many of you have read it and all of you will give a short book talk in small groups before Christmas.

From today onwards there will be an opportunity for those 

who want to get their book assignment out of the way.

Be prepared to talk about:

• The story

• The characters

• The setting

• The message/relevance of your book.

Otherwise today we are going to work on the anthology.

The anthology consists of short extracts (utdrag) from 

classic works in English from the UK and USA.

All of them are at least 100 years old.

Some are easier to understand and some are harder.

Your task is to find out a little about the author then read 

(listen to) the texts and work out what each one is about.

You can write a short comment about them ( try to do all 

the texts if possible) and make a wordlist from the 

anthology.

All questions don't hesitate to ask father Christmas!!!

Week 47 we will talk about literary periods and you can

do the final task then.
