HOW DOES ISOLATION AFFECT RELATIONSHIPS?

BY: SELASE, MADDY, MAKENA, AND MELODY

FIRST WE NEED TWO VOLUNTEERS...

  • One puts on a blindfold
  • The other stands next to them
  • The person that can see will describe the following images

OVERVIEW

  • Explanation of the game.
  • Isolation: to push a person or thing away from others.
  • Miscommunication: failure to communicate understandably
  • Gregor was isolated from his family, trapped in his room.
  • Gregor could not communicate his feelings to his family.

""IF HE UNDERSTOOD US... THEN PERHAPS SOME COMPROMISE WOULD BE POSSIBLE WITH HIM. BUT AS IT IS... "IT HAS TO GO" CRIED THE SISTER. "THAT IS THE ONLY WAY FATHER. YOU MUST TRY TO GET RID OF THE IDEA THAT THIS IS GREGOR..... "HIS LAST BREATH FLOWED WEAKLY OUT"PG 18 PG PG 19

DISCUSSION:

  • How does isolation effect Gregor's view of family?
  • If Gregor could have communicated with his family, how would you think the story would have ended?
  • Do you think locking up Gregor in his room did it help the family or cause more trouble?
  • Does isolation only negatively effect relationships?
  • Can you see a correlation between Gregor and his father to Harry Potter and uncle Vernon?

CONCLUDING THOUGHTS
