From the beginning of this term Sonics have been reading novels connected to war.
Our groups have been reading different novels and working on question sheets. We now know so much more about the unfair treatment of all people, particularly the jewish people, the soldiers and also children’s opinions of the war.
The Kowhai group have been reading 'The Boy in Striped Pyjamas' by John Boyne, and have just watched the movie. We did an activity where we compared differences and similarities between the book and movie.
We noticed that the first half of the book was shown in the first quarter of the movie. Majority of the movie was concentrated on the very last part, which is where the two best friends, each from different sides of the fence, died together.
It’s very sad and you will need to watch or read it.
