1 Chris is smart and a good salesman. He also has a sense of adventure.

2 He is going to be travelling for a long time. Another word for a person who doesn't have a permanent home is a tramp.

Interprete

Read the following quotes from the book Into the Wild. 

Which quotes go with Chris’s life and which go with Alex’s, do you think? 

Write Chris or Alex next to each quote.

“Alex talked a lot when we got together,” she recalls. “Serious stuff, like he was baring his soul, kind of. He said he could tell me things that he couldn’t tell the others. You could see something was gnawing at him.”

“He was always really nice to me,” she says, “and extremely protective. He’d hold my hand when we walked down the street. When he got out [of school] earlier than me, he’d hang out at his friend’s house so we could walk home together.”

“He was really serious about running.” “I can remember standing at the finish line, watching him run, knowing how badly he wanted to do well and how disappointed he’d be if he did worse than he expected. After a bad race or even a bad time trial during practice, he could be really hard on himself. And he wouldn’t want to talk about it.”

Alexander

Chris

“He was smart. He’d figured out how to paddle a canoe down to Mexico, how to hop freight trains, how to score a bed at inner-city shelters. He figured all of that out on his own.”

“I said ‘Chris, if you really want to make a difference in the world, if you really want to help people who are less fortunate, get yourself some leverage first. Go to college, get a law degree, and then you’ll be able to have a real impact.’”

“Sometimes we’d drive for hours without saying a word,” he recalls. “Even when he was sleeping, I was happy just knowing he was there.”

De docent controleert in de slotfase van de les of de leerdoelen door alle leerlingen behaald zijn en plaatst de les in de context van de betreffende Unit. De docent evalueert samen met de leerlingen het leren en het gedrag op basis van het Learner Profile en de ATL-skills. Dit wordt vastgelegd in Toddle. Samen blikken docent en leerlingen vooruit aan de hand van de JdW-planner.
