Working from the Text
8. In the graphic organizer below, add key details from the text that you can use to make predictions about how the scene will look on film. After viewing the film clip, make comments in the third column evaluating the accuracy of your predictions. In some cases, the film portrays the facts just as Carlin’s book recorded them. In others, you will notice that the film alters the facts.

9. Discussion: Compare and contrast the film and text versions. How were they similar and different? Why do you think some of the facts were altered in the film version?
Setting a Purpose for reading
• As you read the nonfiction text, underline words and phrases that you would include if you were doing a biographical presentation about Nelson Mandela.
• Circle unknown words and phrases. Try to determine the meaning of the words by using context clues, word parts, or a dictionary.
• Make predictions in the margin about changes the filmmakers might make to this scene.
