1 Novel Study English 30-1 Truth and Bright Water ~ by Thomas King Introduction This novel study is a 4-week unit, consisting of approximately 20 classes. Each class is 90 minutes long. It is cross-curricular in that it draws on students previous knowledge of First Nations history and their present varied roles in North American culture. Each week focuses on a theme that relates to the overarching concept of Personal Identity, Existence, and the Forces that Shape It. The theme for week one is Personal Myths and Legends, and will explore our own story through literary aspects such as plot, characters, point of view, and symbolism and how this relates to our chosen novel Truth and Bright Water by Thomas King. It is a contemporary Canadian novel set locally, straddling the Southern Alberta and Montana border. General Student Learning Outcomes Since this is a Grade 12 unit of study, we must prepare students for the final governmentadministered diploma exam. That said, we continue to teach the human story. The thematic focus for Grade 12 English Language Arts is existentialism and the moral and ethical implications of being. The novel s themes will be explored by implementing the six language arts strands (listening, speaking, reading, writing, viewing and representing) to achieve these five interrelated and interdependent learning outcomes: explore thoughts, ideas, feelings and experiences; comprehend literature, and other texts in oral, print, visual, and multimedia forms and respond accordingly; manage ideas and information; create oral, print, visual, and multimedia texts, and enhance the clarity and artistry of communication; and respect, support, and collaborate with others. We will strive to: ~ gain insight into the human condition (positive, negative, and points between) ~ expand students experience through creative and critical thinking ~ transcend the borders of time and space as we explore the imaginary world ~ create interdisciplinary connections to strengthen authentic learning and knowledge base ~ expand the understanding of language conventions to more fully create precise and artistic communications, either written, oral, or visual. This period of time in your life s journey marks the transition from youthful dependence to youthful independence. Although circumstances may differ, dilemmas, desires, and emotions are universal. Through this study, we will gain insight into who we are as individuals and as a community of learners. Course Activities Reading the novel is 260 pages long, and in order to keep it fresh and lively, we will mix up how reading is delivered. Sometimes specific passages will be read by the teacher, student volunteers, small group of students, and most often, on own at home. To introduce the unit, we will read the short story Borders, and Chief Seattle s Letter the following class. Listening listening to the CBC 1 radio drama Dead Dog Café written by Thomas King, as well as to each other Identity Collage a visual representation on the theme of personal myth and existence Class Discussions symbolism, characters, names and titles, pace, rhythm, dialogue, plot developments and turns, and setting, etc. Exploration of Visual Artists how themes and symbols from novel are represented in a still visual medium (Alfred Young Man, Fritz Scholder, Dana Claxton, Jane Ash Poitras, Gerald MacMaster)
2 Music listen to and study the lyrics of contemporary First Nations musicians and poets (Ostwelve, War Party, Tom Jackson, Robbie Robertson, Buffy St. Marie) Films watch some films, videos and short excerpts that often touch on the theme of forms of existence (Dances with Wolves, comedian Ryan McMahon) Writing short in-class writing pieces in journal format and modest in-class essays Group Performance small groups will choose a short but meaningful scene from the novel for reenactment. As novels form the bedrock for most films, some costumes will be assembled, rudimentary sets will be erected and a written script with dialogue and movement directions will be submitted at the time of performance. Each performance will be video taped Assessment / Evaluation ~ Participation ~ Several short writing reflections ~ Identity Collage ~ In-Class Final Essay (as practice for diploma exam) ~ Group performance for final wrap up Resources Required Texts: Truth and Bright Water by Thomas King Borders by Thomas King, 1993 from One Good Story, That One.
