Bargaining with the Birds

This would be my go at the literature pilot reading programme.

In about a week we would have gone to four schools to hopefully interest them in Lit. Today I'm dealing with solely Sec 2 students

The author is a  fan and an avid reader of Animal Farm. Aren't the covers gorgeous?

I love my timeline pieces. Seeing them reconstruct, like how I did before, was so amusing

My precious ballot box to house a truly brilliant sentiment of a voting slip

It was wonderful teaching them what it means to spoil the vote. They really got into it

My voice closed the session. I wanted them to think about the consequences of voting purely on hearing the candidate's articulate speech. How much can you trust?

Of course when it came down to it... I think they (the majority who kindly voted for him) really felt the weight of voting once I told them: Robert lied. (Noted from 'lessons learnt' in the feedback form)
