Learning Targets
• Analyze internal and external conflicts and how characters respond to conflict in a text.
• Make connections within a text, between texts, between a text and self, and between a text and the broader world.
• Synthesize the literary elements of Walk Two Moons in order to create a collaborative visual representation.
Novel Study
In this activity, you will analyze internal and external conflicts, make connections, and create a visual representation of Walk Two Moons.
Internal and External Conflicts
1. As you viewed clips from the film Up, you analyzed many internal and external forces that cause Carl Fredrickson to change. Whenever the main character struggles against internal and external forces, there is a conflict in the story.
List one internal conflict, such as a difficult decision or emotion, that Carl Fredrickson struggles with.
List one external conflict, such as a force of nature or another character, that Carl Fredrickson struggles against.
2. Give one of the faces below long straight hair (Sal) and the other one curly hair (Phoebe). Review your note-taking in your double-entry journal for Walk Two Moons. Add examples of conflict to the faces. Put at least one internal conflict inside each face and one external conflict outside each face.
my Notes
3. In a collaborative group, compare and contrast your visualization of conflicts in the two characters above. Based on your analysis, discuss who is struggling more with internal conflict and who is struggling more with external conflict.
