Activities

Use this activity to engage all types of learners, while requiring that they refer to and incorporate details from the text over the course of the activity.

“Human Collage”

In this activity, students create a collage using different images to illustrate what a human should be.

Throughout the novel, Jenna tries to determine whether she is human. It isn’t until she is attacked by Dane that she realizes being human isn’t the percentage of actual human parts you have, but how you treat others. Create a collage using different images to illustrate what being human means to you.

  • Create an outline of a human body.
  • Inside each part of the body, paste, draw, or print a picture representing the ideal qualities a person should have. For example, you might place a picture of a strong person on the head to illustrate a strong mind.
  • Find and place on your collage at least 10 different qualities a person should have.
  • Label what each image represents.
  • Present your collage and draw comparisons to what Jenna believes a person should be.

Teaching Suggestion: Consider providing students with magazines, allowing students to print images off, or having them draw the images on their own. Consider also permitting students to write the comparisons to what Jenna believes next to their image to help them deliver a smoother presentation.
