Peter And The Starcatchers Audiobook - DISC 1/7- Unabridged

The house in Grenville Street also seems a likely candidate as the setting of the Darlings' house in Bloomsbury: in the introduction to Act 1 of Peter Pan (the play), Barrie explains he placed their house in Bloomsbury because he once lived there and describes it as a corner house, overlooking a 'leafy square', which could well be Brunswick Square (at the time, part of the Foundling Hospital grounds).

The novel explains that the Neverlands are found in the minds of children, and that although each is "always more or less an island", and they have a family resemblance, they are not the same from one child to the next. For example, John Darling's had "a lagoon with flamingos flying over it" while his little brother Michael's had "a flamingo with lagoons flying over it". The novel further explains that the Neverlands are compact enough that adventures are never far between. It says that a map of a child's mind would resemble a map of Neverland, with no boundaries at all.[1]

As students read the original and prequel versions of Peter Pan, they will take notes about the following in their Writer’s Notebook:

•Setting

•List of characters and their traits

•The character’s internal responses and

external behaviors to events in the story

•The events that lead up to climax, and,

ultimately, the character’s development

•"I Won’t Grow Up”—how do Peter Pan’s

actions reflect these famous words?

•Distribute a Plot Diagram to students and ask them in

whose point of view is Peter Pan being told.

•Discuss the effect of having Peter Pan’s point of view

in the story.

• Discuss different points of view, particularly

omniscient and limited omniscient.

•Once students decide on the point of view, ask

students what was Barrie’s purpose in using this point

of view?

Short Story - Setting, Plot, Character

•Students will create a character map of one

of the characters from Peter Pan, citing

specific examples from the text.

•As a class, compare and contrast similarities

and differences in how the characters

develop over the course of a story, and

discuss how we learn from the behavior of

literary characters—both through examples

and non-examples.
