The Secret of Platform 13 - Session 10 - Character Analysis The King and Queen

During Session 10 of "The Secret of Platform 13", students delve into a character analysis activity designed to enhance their understanding of the King and Queen. The activity encourages them to closely examine the text for descriptive words and phrases that paint a picture of what the King looks like. They are also tasked with identifying language that illustrates the King's manner of speaking and his behavior. This detailed exploration of the text not only aids in comprehension but also allows students to engage creatively by drawing the King based on the descriptions they have gathered.

Similarly, the character analysis extends to the Queen, where students are guided to discern specific words and phrases that detail her appearance. They are prompted to consider how the Queen communicates and conducts herself within the story, fostering a deeper connection with the character. This analytical approach is complemented by a creative aspect, as students use the gathered descriptions to create their own visual representation of the Queen. Through this session, learners develop their skills in text analysis and interpretation, while also expressing their understanding through art.
