Gordon KormanA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
Consider the round characters in Korman’s novel. How do they grow and develop as a result of Chase’s accident? What prejudices must each person overcome to accept the changes in Chase? Consider these points as you reflect on the text:
Teaching Suggestion: Students may find it beneficial to record the initial reactions of the characters in the novel to Chase’s amnesia to track the way the characters change as the story progresses. It may be helpful to create a list of characters with the class, which could be followed by a discussion of which characters change and are therefore “round,” and which characters lack depth and are therefore “flat.”
Differentiation Suggestion: English language learners and students with executive function differences may benefit from the use of a three-column chart to analyze changes in characters (Chase/family/friends). Permitting students to work in small groups to discuss character changes within these categories may encourage collaboration and critical thinking.
