Class Project Example on the Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
http://www.londonfields.hackney.sch...ents/download.asp?file=105&type=pdf Added: 27 May 2016 Contributor: Scoilnet Resource type: Guide/notes / Presentation / Reference
A dedicated compilation of work from a class showing their utter compassion and heartfelt empathy towards victims of WW2. Read a good example of work from a pupil who writes a letter for Bruno to explain to his friends that he has moved homes. Look at how pupils took on the persona of their chosen character describing their profile. Check out the transcript pupils wrote between Bruno and his father. See pictures of their performance. Witness the top secret diary entries from Pavels' perspective. Witness Bruno's mothers horror as she see's the concentration camps. Look at persuasive writing to Shmuel. If your pupils enjoyed reading "Boy in the Striped Pyjamas", why not recommend "Rose Blanche" as a summer reading.
