Exploring Alternate Realities: Character Perspectives

This lesson aims to delve into the creation of alternate realities by characters like Blanche, Stella, Stanley, and Mitch. Through the Circle of Viewpoints exercise, students analyze different perspectives on the topic, focusing on understanding why and how individuals construct alternate realities. By completing writing prompts from various viewpoints, such as a psychologist's journal report or a tabloid magazine news report, students explore the challenges of communication between individuals with distorted realities and those connected with reality. The lesson encourages critical thinking, empathy, and analysis of characters' motivations in creating alternate realities.
