Maus - Lesson 2

Re-visit pages 14 and 15.

Consider the pictures carefully and make notes on what you see. Consider the shots and angles used and the purpose these might serve as well as looking at what you see in each picture.

Now write this scene as a narrative. Consider the following:

1. How much of the dialogue do you want to include?
2. How will you accommodate the change in narrator to Vladek?
3. How will you accommodate what was revealed in the pictures? Will you have to leave some of these things out?

You may work in pairs. Post your narrative to your blog. Read to the end of Chapter 3 for homework.
