Homework: Week 2: Class1


Read the extract from Patrick Chamoiseau’s book “School Days” starting on page 7 of the textbook.


After you have read the article, discuss the following questions with your language partner or imaginary friend :

1: What were some of the reasons the little boy wanted to go to school? By the end of the reading what was his main reason?

2: How would you describe the little boy’s family life? What kinds of relationships does he have with his mother, father, and brother Jojo?

3: How would you describe Chamoiseau’s style of writing? What did you like about it? What didn't you like?
