This week, let's do some thinking about the setting of the book you are reading.  Down below, describe the setting (the general time and place in which the story is playing out), and then answer one of the following questions: 1)  If it is non-fiction, how is that setting contributing to the plot?  Examples .....Does it help create the conflict?  Does it affect the character, and limit his or her  responses to challenges?  OR 2) If the book is fiction, why did the author choose to set the book in that time and place?  How does that choice advance the plot?

 

This is posted in the Teams "Book Study" channel - it would be cool to post your answer there, so others can see the different ways that setting affects a story.  If you can't do that, you can always email me at jean.macdonald2@nbed.nb.ca
