Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe has been a beloved classic children's story for many years. Find out why in this fun Flex class!

"Narnia… the land beyond the wardrobe door, a secret place frozen in eternal winter, a magical country waiting to be set free.

Lucy is the first to find the secret of the wardrobe in the professor's mysterious old house. At first her brothers and sister don't believe her when she tells of her visit to the land of Narnia. But soon Edmund, then Peter and Susan step through the wardrobe themselves. In Narnia they find a country buried under the evil enchantment of the White Witch. When they meet the Lion Aslan, they realize they've been called to a great adventure and bravely join the battle to free Narnia from the Witch's sinister spell." Summary from Goodreads.com.

Over the course of three weeks, the teacher will provide relevant background information in relation to the setting of the novel and lead a discussion of the book. The teacher will discuss the author's background and the influence on his writing. Through reading and answering questions in the classroom, we will explore the plot, character development, themes, symbols, and other literary devices.

As according to Outschool's policies, any mention of religion that pops up in the book will be discussed in a secular nature. If you have any questions about this please reach out to me.
