週あたり 1-2 時間. The book is quick to read as it is in verse, however there is magic in the words on each page and I suggest reading each section more than once and using notes on your paper or post it notes in the book that capture special phrases, topics you want to discuss, conflicts etc so you are ready to have incredible discussions. PLEASE DO NOT READ AHEAD. Prior to class #1 please read to page 78. Prior to class #2, please read to page 160. Prior to class #3, please read to end of book.

Starfish was named a 2022 Michael J. Printz Honor Book.  Author Lisa Fipps' first novel, is a quick read, but it packs a lot into its honest, sad, and hilarious verse. Narrated by middle schooler, Ellie, novel-in-verse STARFISH introduces the hero while she's swimming in her pool, where she feels weightless and can wash off the burden of the cruel bullying she experiences as a fat tween. Her bestie, Viv, who's also fat, moves away, but Catalina, a thin (and surprisingly not fatphobic) girl, moves in next door, and they are instant friends. Ellie's teased incessantly at school, but the bullying from her mom and brother hurt the most. Her dad is amazing: He argues with the family when they harass Ellie and he takes her on a shopping spree to a plus- size boutique. When her mom takes her to a weight-loss surgery doctor against her will and kids at school remove bolts from her desk so that it collapses when she sits down, Ellie has had it. She knows doesn't deserve such horrible treatment, but can she figure out a way to stand up for herself that doesn't make her feel like a bully, too?Ellie's therapy sessions with Dr. Wood are funny and moving, with witty banter and emotional realizations.
Readers who've been targeted for their own body size will relate, and readers who haven't will be enlightened and motivated to adopt the ally behaviors modeled in this story. A deeply meaningful read, this book can spark conversations about how to fight anti-fat bias in a world obsessed with thinness.
In this discussion based class, readers will explore the deeply moving and sensitive characters as their attributes and traits become more well-known as the novel develops. At the same time, the strongly and deeply embedded themes and conflicts and crucial settings in this realistic fiction book will bring up many fascinating discussion points. The use of figurative language and specific vocabulary along with the fact that this book is primarily based on a true character brings dynamic chances to explore conversation based on the outcome of decisions made.
Literally, this is a great opportunity for adults to read along and share great conversation at home with their learner.

The class center around lively and powerful discussions in a totally safe and positive community.  No less is accepted from the participants as we thrive when we all learn and grow together. Chapter readings are assigned in between, and befor, the classes. Not only will the class focus on themes but also vocabulary in context, figurative language, conflicts and rising action and wonderful opportunities for deep discussions based on friendship, dignity, and respect for all people within the challenges each of us face.
. Learners quickly feel comfortable adding to discussions and building off each other's ideas.  Mixed into the discussion are valuable language skills of the exposition of the novel including  themes, character development, protagonists, antagonists, figurative language, critical settings, vocabulary, elements of realistic fiction, conflicts,, character traits, turning points, predictions, voice, imagery, resolutions, foreshadowing, setting development all leading to powerful conclusions.

学習到達目標

Learner goals include growth in vocabulary, vocabulary in context, understanding the realism and details used regarding bullying, judgement of others, body image, and the inherent life-long risks associated with being the focus of such actions,  decision making,  learning to take control of your emotions and actions in order to claim power over the bully while not letting yourself go to their level, conflicts/resolutions, character development/motives/ quirks ,lifelong friendships, the genre of realistic fiction, turning points, figurative language, and overall powerful themes including how situations can bring people together to see the greater good and the chance to overcome such painful moments, the implications of making correct healthy choices, reaching for your goals against all odds, grief , sorrow, greed, body judgement,stereotypes, reaching out for help,  the positive outcome that can occur when  people set aside differences for a greater common good.  This book is a significant and important piece of literature that handles all of these topics in a way that will have you rooting for the main character as she learns to value herself  and even change the behaviors of some others around her.  This novel is such an important read for male and female learners.

Parents need to know that Lisa Fipp's novel-in-verse, Starfish, takes on anti-fat bias, bullying, and self-acceptance. Middle schooler Ellie lives by the "Fat Girl Rules" -- don't wear bright colors, don't move so fast that your body jiggles, make yourself as small as possible, and on and on. But the rules aren't protecting her from her bullies, and Ellie realizes if things are going to change, it'll have to start with her. While this book is ultimately hopeful, verbal abuse in the form of bullying and rejection from family and peers is at times intensely cruel. The verbal violence tips over into physical when peers remove bolts from Ellie's desk and it collapses on her as she tries to sit down, resulting in minor injury. No swearing or other content concerns, including Ellie in the novel, is taking charge of the situation while not stooping to the level of the bullies. I encourage adults in the family to read this book also.

After 33 years in 5th and 6 th grade classrooms, I have much experience in dealing with bullying and the affects on those being bullied while also teaching skills for bystanders and bullies.  I am a strong advocate for the safety of all and absolute decline in bullying action in any form.  I worked on these skills, and taking away power from bullies, with 5th -8th graders and family/ adult education to search out solutions and coach students towards being in control and never allowing others to lower the respect you need to have for yourself, now more than ever.
