Как читают студенты, раскадровка может служить полезным справочным журналом признаков. Этот журнал (также называемый символьной картой) позволяет студентам напомнить соответствующую информацию о важных персонажах. При чтении романа небольшие атрибуты и детали часто становятся важными по мере продвижения сюжета. С картографированием символов студенты будут записывать эту информацию, помогая им следовать и улавливать тонкости, которые делают чтение более приятным!

Have students interview a character from The Prince and the Pauper as if they are reporters. This activity encourages deeper analysis and helps students empathize with the characters by thinking about their motivations and experiences.
Divide the class so each student or group focuses on a different character. This ensures variety in responses and lets everyone get involved. Assign characters based on interest or randomly for a mix of perspectives.
Guide students to create 5–7 open-ended questions that explore the character’s thoughts, feelings, and choices. Encourage them to ask about key events and how the character feels about other people in the story.
Have students take turns being the interviewer and the character. They can perform for the class or in small groups. This step helps students practice empathy and public speaking skills.
Ask students to write a quick reflection about what they learned from the interview. This helps them connect with the text and deepen comprehension of character traits and motivations.
A character map for The Prince and the Pauper is a visual tool that helps students organize and track key details about the main characters, including their traits, relationships, and roles in the story.
Guide students to list the major characters, choose images or symbols to represent each one, and fill in sections for character traits, interactions with the main character, and the narrator’s attitude. Encourage creativity in selecting colors and backgrounds that match each character’s personality.
