CRÓNICA DE UNA MUERTE ANUNCIADA EN CLUB DE LECTURA

Seguindo coa proposta deste curso de enfocar as lecturas de selectividade de 2BAC en reunións de Club de Lectura, a última foi a gran novela de García Márquez: Crónica de una muerte anunciada.

Desmembramos episodios, parámonos a pensar na maneira de comportarse dos personaxes, percorremos lugares e momentos do texto coa nosa reflexión.

 E as palabras dos rapaces traspasaron os límites da lectura obrigatoria para disfrutar dun texto sinxelo e á vez complexo do universo narrativo de García Márquez.

THE SECRET OF THE OLD CLOCK. CAROLYN KEENE

The Secret of the Old Clock is the first volume in the Nancy Drew Mystery Stories series written under the pseudonym Carolyn Keene.

SUMARY

Sixteen-year-old Nancy Drew wishes to help the Turners, who are struggling relatives of the recently deceased Josiah Crowley. Aided along the way by  Helen Corning, she becomes interested in the case because she dislikes his snobbish "nouveau-riche" social-climbing heirs presumptive, the Tophams. Interviewing various Crowley relatives and friends, Nancy learns from an injured old lady that Crowley hinted that the clue to his will would be found in the family clock.

MEETING

The meeting was  19th of April, Tuesday, during break time. The book club formed by seven students and two teachers discussed about this book. All of us agreed that the book was very easy to read, in fact, in USA the book is written for kids ages 8 to 12.  However, because of that the book becomes a little predictable, even the end of it. The book was rewritten in 1959 and due to this you will find nothing about  cell phones or computers, so different to the present moment of the students that they didn't feel identified with Nancy, the main character. Anyway, if you love mysteries, then surely, you will enjoy this book.

PLENILUNIO. A. MUÑOZ MOLINA.

Nunca se me ocurriría elixir este libro para un Club de lectura pero o feito de que o alumnado de 2ºBac o tivese como lectura obrigatoria levoume a pensar que podería ser unha boa maneira de enfocar o estudo da novela dunha maneira máis amena e distinta... Por iso lles propuxen, ó meu grupo de alumnos, facer unha sesión especial de Club Balbordo tendo como protagonista a obra de Muñoz Molina: Plenilunio.
Contabamos coa dificultade do elevado número de alumnos da clase pero, aínda así, falaron moito, destriparon o texto sen fixarse na "presión" das cuestións de selectividade, analizamos situacións, personaxes, anécdotas, caracteres, lugares...

Na reunión o ambiente foi o propio dunha sesión do Club: algunha discrepancia, risas... e palabras, moitas palabras
