Charting Our Ideas on the Theme of Faith in Night

Aim: How do we analyze what Elie Wiesel is trying to get us to understand about faith?  

Journal Prompt #10: Memorable Moments
What will you remember most about the pages you read in Night this week and why? Re-read the text to job your memory if necessary.

We are diving still deeper into the concept of faith and how this theme is developing in the memoir Night. Today we will work in groups to share our notes and writing from the last two days. Each group will create a chart with these four elements:

  • 1 significant sentence or quote from the text relating to faith
  • 3 questions your group has or things you want to know more about related to the theme of faith.
  • 2 things your group knows for sure about faith
  • 1 guess about what Elie Wiesel is trying to get you to understand about faith.
Put the names of all the group members on the chart. They should all be posted on the wall before the end of class.

What's due:
  • Loss of Faith worksheet
  • Interpretation of the differing taste of the soup. 
  • Group thematic essay. 
  • Group thematic essay evaluation. 
  • Independent reading book.
