We discussed Prince Caspian for the entire class time. Yup. It was almost too much for them. We discussed that if they want to be scholars, this kind of thing is commonplace. Are they ready?
We started with mapping out the hero journey of Prince Caspian. We talked about how this book relates to Mars in Lewis's poem, The Planets. (see an earlier post about Planet Narnia, or the Narnia Code.)
We talked about archetypes, faith, courage, and leadership. We talked about what how restoration is the main theme of this book. We talked about the development of a few of the characters.
For the next class we will be making a map of Narnia. Bring colored pencils!
