Number the stars, novel reading week 46 - 50

We are going to read the novel Number The Stars by Lois Lowry. The reading will help you increase, not just your vocabulary in English, but also your understanding of ordinary life in Denmark during World War 2.

We are going to use two lessons a week to read this novel. You can choose if you prefere to read the book by yourself or listen and read from esl-bits.net. There will be some questions for you to work with both before you start every new chapter and while you are reading. I encourage you to let each question take its time and give answers that are well thought through. There will also be group discussions in class  after we have finished reading.

You give all your answers in a SharePoint document (9AEN)  and you name the document Number The Stars by Lois Lowry

If you prefere to listen to the book this is where you find it:

It´s great if you can bring your own earphones Monday and Friday week 46 - 50

The study guide with questions is to find in Sharepoint 9AEN undervisning.
