"SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN"

“CHILDREN’S LITERATURE RESPONSE WORKSHEET” 

SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN:

1. Please write a brief summary of the literature book that you read in your group.

An epic fantasy film. Now, detailing the plot shouldn't be too hard, as we all know the story from childhood- Evil Queen with talking mirror is hell-bent on killing her 'pure' step-daughter and hires a Huntsman to do the job for her. The Huntsman takes pity on the girl when he finds her, and together they become fugitives, going on a journey that involves meeting Dwarfs. Seven of them to be precise. What follows is a major battle between good and evil to determine who will reign over the Kingdom, the evil Queen or our heroine Snow White?

2. Name some of the hardships that the characters in your story faced.

Is unable to rescue Snow White, who is captured by Ravenna's brother Finn. Snow White is then locked away in the north tower of the castle.

The Huntsman kills Finn after learning he abetted in the murder of his wife. William reveals himself and helps defeat the soldiers before joining the others in their journey to Hammond's castle.

The Dwarves infiltrate Tabor through the sewers and open the gates, which allow the Duke's army to invade the castle. Snow White confronts Ravenna, but is overpowered. Ravenna is about to kill Snow White and consume her heart when Snow White stabs her in the heart instead, causing Ravenna to wither and die. Hammond's army is victorious, and Snow White is crowned Queen of the restored kingdom.
 

3. Tell how the main character is both similar and different than you.

Similar: Snow White was a strong woman, because she lived many things to have happiness and her prince. All situations help her to strong her personality and have the support of other important people like the huntsman. This is similar in my life because the hardships in general help me to face the life and continue with the story.

Different: Beauty is not for life, but must face difficult situations and people that don’t like us instead of fleeing, because it makes things worse.

"THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING LITERATURE TO STUDENTS"

English language teaching methodologies:

·         Literature is authentic material. It is good to expose learners to this source of unmodified language in the classroom.

DRAWING: WHY DO IT?

 

 

 

Our young people need some remedial visualization experiences, some encouragement and practice with creating sensory images as they read. Drawing, charting, mapping, and other forms of graphic response also serve the range of learning styles that exist in any real classroom. Too often, we confine student’s literary responses to written or spoken language, even though we know that some of our own most powerful responses to a book come from a vision of the place. Our image of a character, or the picture we make of a single stunning moment. Many times, a drawn or graphic response can capture those elements better than more words.
