Plan for I read therefore I am!

Purpose:

The idea is for you to read and experience a short story digitally and at the same time listen to it (if you want to). You practise your English and then you will write a summary about your short story...hence practising your written skills.  

This is how we go about it:

You will read a short story (novell) the page we are using is www.esl-bits.net under “short stories”.  You will read one short story out of the following three:

  1. The elephant vanishes by Haruki Murakami
  2. How to talk to girls at parties by Neil Gaiman
  3. The girl detective by Kelly Link

Then, in your own words, summarize what the short story was about. Your summary ought to be between 300-400 words. Try to challenge yourself in writing; use synonyms for example, make sure the grammar is correct and so on.

Knowledge requirements:

I skriftliga framställningar i olika genrer kan eleven formulera sig (...)
