Holes in English B



I have been trying to get hold of this for a while now. Well done Max, I believe this is more watchable though if you have read the book Holes by Louis Sacher.

I love popping in to the English B (and SSST) groups in 115. There are always great activities and presentations etc going on. Wendy's group were doing more presentations and I caught a little of Vivianne ands Janet, who are becomming very familiar with presentations! This week in SSST Liz and the students were in a circle analyzing the anarchy in Lord of the Flies. Everyone contributed and I would like to ask if you can answer the question on this blog? What would have happened if the population of children left on the island had been females instead of males. It was international womens day this week. Good to celebrate and remember that male and female are different and especially equally unique. I heard an argument that men need to be reminded to be more sensitive on womens day (this was osho - the mystic we watched in TOK) Do you agree? If true then what would have happened on the island if all the people stranded were girls? By the way, in the circle you described anarchy as chaos, is it.... we had some debate about this in TOK???
