Goals
For the learner to have an opportunity to . . .
- Identify elements of a more intermediate narrative
- Compare two works for the use of clues and patterns
- Evaluate how distractors become useful content
- Recognize pattern prediction as a strategy of anticipation
- Assess whether story characters act consistently
Content
The two anticipatory stories in this module are more intermediate.
- Their structure is familiar, with replacement text and self-assessing progress.
- However, they require greater attention to detail, have relevant facts spaced farther apart, use more subtle clues, and require the reader to predict future actions from patterns inferred.
What do you Think?
- Is the genre of the first story more mystery or more sci fi? Would the title ‘BloodMoon’ fit—or what title would fit better?
- The second story makes the point that politics is the art of the possible. What does that mean and what, from the story, supports your interpretation? How is that different from saying the point is ‘you win some, you lose some’?
- What level of thinking are these three questions?
