In case you left your copy at school, June Novel : the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime
Homework: Please complete 1 or 2 options.
Option 1: Please answer 2 of the 4 questions below.
Option 2: Please answer all 4 questions below.
Questions:
- What
does Christopher learn from Mrs. Alexander in this section? Does this information help him solve the
mystery, or is it merely disturbing to him?
- Knowing
what you now know, can you agree with Christopher and Ed (Chris’s father)
that Mr. Shears is a bad person? Does he make sense as a suspect?
- Christopher
describes the “Monty Hall” math problem on pp. 64-5 and he provides us
with a description of clouds on pp. 67-9. To what extent are these
digressions (un)related to the story? What do these digressions tell us
about Christopher? Why might the author have chosen to include them?
- What
does the “Monty Hall” problem prove about math, contrary to what Mr.
Jeavons has said? Why do you
suppose Christopher likes this conclusion?
