The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre DumasIf you choose to purchase your own copy of the book, it is important that you purchase the edition that we will use in class. The novel is translated from French by Lowell Bair. We will use the slightly abridged Bantam Classic paperback. You can find a link to this edition on Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Count-Monte-Cristo-Bantam-Classics/dp/0553213504
You will be working in groups to analyze The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas using lessons modified from The Center for Learning. You will be assigned a group and invited to a Google Document where you will assign yourselves a part of each reading assignment. When assignments are due, you will serve as the "expert" or spokesperson for some facet of the reading. You will share your observations that you have recorded on the group document with the group.
Directions from the Google Document: You will have a core group that you are responsible for “teaching” throughout the entirety of this novel study. Prior to teaching and discussing within your core group, however, you may occasionally have an opportunity to work with the members from other groups who are assigned your like topic to ensure you have all of the information you need to be able to effectively teach your core group members. |
