Learning objectives P3: 

• Ik houd mijn schrijfvaardigheid bij en zorg dat ik de ontwikkelingen die ik in P2 heb gemaakt, niet vergeet.
• Leerlingen maken leeskilometers en reflecteren op hun leesvoorkeuren door een eerste boek voor hun leesdossier te lezen. Leerlingen gebruiken in de derde periode ook de ‘Lit Circle Roles’ als hulpmiddel bij het voeren van leesgesprekken
• Leerlingen maken de eerste boekopdracht voor hun leesdossier. 
• Ik kan zodanig deelnemen aan een vloeiend en spontaan gesprek, dat normale uitwisseling met moedertaalsprekers redelijk mogelijk is. Ik kan binnen een vertrouwde context actief deelnemen aan een discussie en hierin mijn standpunten uitleggen en ondersteunen

Recap Ch 1

1. Who is Old Major? Why is he important?

2. Who is Mr Jones? Why is he important?   

3. What do the following quotations mean and why are they important?

a. “Man is the only creature that consumes without producing.”

b. “What goes upon two legs is an enemy. Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend.”

CH1

• Some of the novel's main characters are introduced in this chapter; the writer shows their strongest characteristics.
• The first chapter presents Jones as more of an "animal" than the animals themselves,  who reacts to any disruption  with the threat of violence.
• By addressing his audience as "comrades" and starting with the statement that he will not be with the others "many months longer," Major presents himself to his listeners as somebody who his wise because of his long life of twelve years and who views the other animals as equals.
• This notion that "All Animals Are Equal" becomes one of the important points of Animalism, the philosophy upon which the rebellion will be based.

Language as a weapon??

One of the novel's themes: Language can be used as a weapon and means of manipulation.

How can you see this in the first Chapter?

The song "Beasts of England"

Rousing an audience with a song is a well-known political maneuvre. 

Powerful piece of propaganda

It is a way in which Major rouses his audience. The use of a song to stir the citizens is an old political tactic, and the text of "Beasts of England" summarizes Major's feelings about Man.

The song describes a day when all animals will overcome their tormentors. The singing of this powerful piece of propaganda reflects one of the novel's themes: Language can be used as a weapon and means of manipulation.
