Recently in English, we have been studying The Kite Runner, which I am finding very emotive and interesting. We have already done a short essay about how Hassan's character was presented in chapter two, and currently looking at Baba's character in chapter three. I am finding that doing the short essays are helpful and useful for time management, and it is providing a deeper understanding of the characters in the book.
I also found that researching the Hazara/Pashtun was very helpful because it provided social and historical context.
Next lesson we will be looking at chapter five, which should be interesting, as the story is beginning to have a plot, and is about to get very interesting..
