Brightstorm - Session 22 - Compare

In Session 22 of Brightstorm, students are prompted to delve into the character development of Eudora Vane by comparing her initial appearances in the narrative to her behaviour in Chapter 28. This exercise encourages readers to reflect on the evolution of Eudora's character throughout the story. Initially, they are introduced to Eudora Vane in Chapters 2 and 9, where certain traits and behaviours set the foundation for her character. Students are then asked to examine how these attributes may have changed or revealed different facets by the time Chapter 28 unfolds.

The comparison activity is designed to enhance the students' understanding of character progression and the subtleties of character portrayal in literature. By drawing contrasts between Eudora's early appearances and her later actions, students engage in critical thinking and analysis. The task requires them to note down their observations and insights, which not only aids in comprehension but also helps in developing their analytical skills. This exercise is a part of the learning materials provided by KS2Gems, aimed at helping students grasp more complex literary concepts through focused character study.
