Alexa began the contemporary play by Agatha Christie today, Love From a Stranger. She found the first film of it from 1937. Curious about early films, I asked if she had ever seen the very first ones that were silent, and she had not. So we watched a nine minute 1910 Frankenstein -- much to her amazement. After that, the 1937 Christie film appeared quite advanced! After watching and discussing these with critical thinking questions, Alexa wrote a couple body paragraphs in comparison/contrast of the two films. She then scored a 90 on a vocabulary test. The plan is to have vocabulary each Tuesday. Alexa should be reading ahead in The Book Thief.
