The Lighthouse Keeper's Wife - A play for Gr. 10 home language (Paperback, School Edition): Charles F. Fourie The Lighthouse Keeper's Wife - A play for Gr. 10 home language (Paperback, School Edition)

The obvious thing to do with this play is to read it as a text, just as you would if it were a short story or a novel. But it holds other possibilities as well. It could be read aloud, with four learners taking the different roles while the rest of the class follow along in their books as the audience, or the class could be divided into groups of four to do the play reading in groups so that everyone gets a chance to read aloud. It could even be staged, with auditions to choose the best cast, who will learn their parts by heart and perform for a wider audience than their classmates, with costumes and props on a set, just as the playwright intended. The play could also be the source of other activities in the classroom such as improvisation, role play and writing. Drama offers the possibility of enjoyment along with a growth in empathy, teamwork and language skills. We hope that this play will serve you in all those ways.

Fans of Inside Out and Back Again will love this novel-in-verse about a Chinese-American girl who contends with school bullies, worries about her sister's mysterious illness, and finds strength at the local tennis court. Frances Chin is an 11-year-old Chinese-American girl who lives in the suburbs of Detroit with her immigrant parents and older sister, Clara. At school Frances contends with bullies and the related loneliness that comes with not quite fitting in. She also feels a different kind of aloneness at home. Her parents are preoccupied with work and worry about Clara, whose hair is inexplicably falling out. While Frances struggles to speak up, she finds strength in her growing tennis skills, and her powerful inner voice is captured through gorgeous imagery and evocative free verse.

R366 Discovery Miles 3 660 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The book, "Removing The Mask" is a selection of poems and writings which encapsulates the essences of change. While grounded in everyday experiences, these poems force the reflective side of our thinking to transport us to past happenings. These lived experiences capture memories of sadness and pain, and quickly create a sweet, balance through the equally uplifting passages which provide both empowerment and positivity for the reader. The book challenges the reader to explore how our experiences can affect how we process issues and how a lack of confidence can debilitate our sense of achievements, purpose, and self-worth. The book arrives at no specific solutions; instead it gently leads the reader to examine the questions stimulated by its content to journey through a host of personal experiences to arrive at a conclusion that is personal and empowering.
