INTRODUCTION
Los
Crímenes de Alicia, by
Guillermo Martínez has won the Nadal Prize 2019 (reading for pleasure). In this
book, the main characters are experts about Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’s writer. The crimes and other situations which are performed in the
Spanish book match with situations which happen in Alice’s Adventures in
Wonderland. So students will search for these similitudes in both books
(reading for a purpose).
The book deals about many different topics, such as
mathematics, human behaviours, even pedophilia.
This gives us the great opportunity of working from
many different points of view, in a cross- curricular way since the English
Department will work simultaneously with the Spanish Language Department.
PROCEDURE
Task 1
· To read both books, Alice’s adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (reading for
purpose) and the 2019 Nadal Prize Los
Crímenes de Alicia by Guillermo Martínez
(reading for fun). The Spanish book can be read at home during a period of
holiday and the British one can be read in class.
Task
2
· To look for the parallelisms between the crimes in Los Crímenes de Alicia and the different
dangerous situation through which Alice goes in Alice’ s Adventures In Wonderland. The murders in the Spanish book
are supposedly based on these risky situations.
Task
3
· To browse both books paying attention to the drawings
in the English one which are clearly referred to in certain phrases of the main
characters in the Spanish book.
Task
4
· To scan through the books looking for some quotes
which may be identical or very similar in both readings: the English and the
Spanish one.
Task
5
·
To
choose some of the quotes below, or other ones which the students have chosen
after their reading and write them on cardboard to decorate the classroom.
Students may decorate them or just write the quotes.
ü
WE MUST ALL FACE THE CHOICE BETWEEN WHAT IS RIGHT AND
WHAT IS EASY.
ü
YOU KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS WITH THIS WORLD? EVERYONE
WANTS SOME MAGICAL SOLUTION TO THEIR PROBLEM AND EVERYONE REFUSES TO BElIEVE IN
MAGIC.
ü
IT'S NO USE GOING BACK TO YESTERDAY, BECAUSE I WAS A
DIFFERENT PERSON THEN.” ...
ü
“WHO IN THE WORLD AM I? ...
ü
“IF EVERYBODY MINDED THEIR OWN BUSINESS, THE WORLD
WOULD GO AROUND A GREAT DEAL FASTER THAN IT DOES.” ...
ü WHEN
YOU CAN’T LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, I WILL SIT WITH YOU IN THE DARK.
Would the book be read aloud by the
teacher? How would you break the reading of the book into manageable segments
for the students? How would you go about furthering their understanding of the
text?
