Now that we have finished the book we will do full class discussions.

Class activities (what you/students will do)

(Entire Class) Why do you think the


author tells the story through the two
voices of Noah and Jude and at two
different ages, i.e. Noah at 13 and Jude at
16? What impact does this have on the
development of the plot, our
understanding of their characters and on
the reader? What are the underpinning
messages of the book?
Love is only half the story is the quote
on the front cover of the book. What do
you think this means and what do you

Class activities (why you will do them)

- Explore: the themes
- Investigate: the meaning of the themes
and any questions.
- Critique: the novel.

think the other half of the story is?


Jude tells Oscar I gave up practically the
whole world for you. The sun, stars,
ocean, trees, everything, I gave it all up
for you (p.365). What was she trying to
express to him? What would you give up
the sun for and why?
The book deals with the big themes in life
grief, sexuality, families, relationships
and most of all love, in all its forms. Art is
one of the central platforms for the
expression of these themes. Discuss how
the characters react to it, use it to bring
meaning to their lives, make sense of the
world around them, harness their
creativity and ultimately help in their
healing.
What did you think about the ending of
the book did it complete the story in a
satisfying and believable way for the
reader? How might it have ended
differently? Write a different ending for
the story and let a minor character
narrate it.
In the book, the sculptor Guillermo Garcia
is described as the kind of man who
walks into a room and all the walls fall
down (p.177). What does that mean and
what does it tell you about him as a
character? Can you think of any real
people for whom this description might
also fit?
When Noah is talking about his father, he
says that he draws him so big I cant fit
all of him on the page, so I leave off his
head (p.15). What does this say about
Noahs relationship with his dad? Does the
reader get to know Dads character as
well as the other characters and what
impression does he leave on the reader?
At the beginning of the book, every time
Jude and Noah played rock, scissors,
paper, they always chose the same thing
(p.25), whereas at the end of the book
they chose differently (p.394). What does
this say about their future lives and the
relationship between them?
After the death of their mother and its
aftermath, both twins change dramatically
in their outlook, behaviour and
personalities, each becoming something
they are not. Why do you think this
happens?

- Interpersonal: listening to each other and


engaging in discussion.
- Linguistic/Verbal/Auditory: Listening,
speaking, reading and writing in the
activities. Responding using textual
evidence.
- Intrapersonal: reading and responding to
the comic book personally.
- Visual: Visuals around the class of
important moments the play.
- Kinesthetic:
- Musical:
- Logical:
Justification:
This classes is what I call the debrief. We
have finished a novel that touches on a lot of
heavy themes and this gives the opportunity
to discuss the themes extensively. This
lesson may turn into multiple class periods
worth of discussion; that is encouraged. This
will be a student led conversation, with
guiding questions provided my myself, to
further their engagement.

11

Which is your favourite character in the


book and why? How do you feel the main
characters deal with their grief and what
impact does this have on the other?
Ghosts and the supernatural feature
prominently throughout the story. How
does the book manage to make Grandma
Sweetwine, who is dead, such a real, solid
character? Do you believe that it is the
ghost of her mum that keeps breaking
Judes sculptures and if so, why do you
think she is doing it? What influence does
the spirit of Oscars mum have?
Prophet the parrot and his Where the
hell is Ralph? refrain is one of the
humorous elements of the story. Why do
you think the author included him and
what part does he play?
Questions from Jandy
If you had your own invisible
museum like Noah, what would some of
your own portraits and self-portraits look
like? In the same vein, if you had
a bible of superstitions like Jude, what
would some of the entries be?
The Michelangelo quote that comes up in
the story, I saw the angel in the marble
and carved until I set him free, is also in
many ways a theme that runs through the
book. I had the feeling when I was writing
that the characters were each
metaphorically trapped in stone prisons of
their own makings. How would you
describe the differing and/or
similar stone prisons of Jude, Noah,
Guillermo and Dad? How do each of them
finally break free?
When Jude is in Oscars bedroom, she
comes across an essay he wrote for an art
history class called The Ecstatic Impulse
of the Artist. What do you think the
essay was about? How do you think this
idea might connect to the story and the
characters, especially Noah? What do you
think Guillermo means when he says to
Jude, I think maybe your brother is the
ecstatic impulse. Further, what do you
think Sandy means when he says artists
wish with their hands? Lastly, what do you
think Guillermo means when he says
(implies) art can remake the world? Do
you think it can?
This quote by the poet Rumi is one of four

12

that begins the novel: Out beyond ideas


of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a
field. Ill meet you there. Who meets in
the field beyond ideas of wrongdoing and
rightdoing? Do Noah and Jude? Noah and
his father? Jude and her mother? Dianna
and Benjamin? Discuss this quote as it
pertains to the relationships in the novel.

Class activities (what you/students will do)


-

(Whole Class Period) Read Twelfth


Night, Act I, scene I. (Shakespeare is
difficult, especially as a play, so
consider reading this aloud, but you
could also have students read it
silently.) Then have all the students
close their books. Ask questions about
the scene to the class. Some sample
questions in a range of levels, and
space for any additional questions you
formulate, are listed below. 2. Now
read Twelfth Night, Act I, scene II.
(Again, reading a Shakespeare play
aloud may be more beneficial and
helpful for the students
comprehension, but you could have
them read silently.) Then you close
your book. Your students leave their
books open and ask you questions of
their own.

Justification:
-

The ReQuest Strategy teaches students


to question their reading in a creative
way. After reading a passage of the text,
students will close their books and the
teacher will model good questioning
about the passage and direct his or her
questions to the students. Then, after
reading a second passage, the students
get a chance to stump the teacher
(whose book is closed) with their own
questions. This is a great strategy to
encourage inquiry and to teach students
to develop good questions, as well as an
opportunity to show students that even
adults still question their reading, and
should still question their reading.

Closure/reminders
-

We will continue reading Twelfth Night.

Assessment (how you will know students met the objectives - include rubrics)
-

Informal formative assessment:


Formal formative assessment:

The ReQuest Strategy could be used as an assessment of a lesson on questioning. If you teach
the students about formulating different levels of questions, you might use this strategy to
evaluate their comprehension. Also, this strategy can be used as an assessment of the students
comprehension of the text. It will help you know, especially with Shakespeare, how much of the
text they are understanding. Doing this at the beginning of a play may help you know how much
you will need to guide them through their reading.

Student groups can be paired low-level with high-level learners to scaffold.


Students with visual difficulties can get an audio version of the video.
Students struggling to write a can write a poem, or draw a picture.
