Rebecca SteadA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
These prompts can be used for in-class discussion, exploratory free-writing, or reflection homework before or after reading the novel.
Personal Response Prompt
Think of a time when your first impression about a person, place, or event was completely wrong. What happened that changed your mind? What did you learn from this experience?
Teaching Suggestion: This prompt may also be helpful for students to discuss in small or large groups. Talking about famous optical illusions or the gold versus blue dress incident presents opportunities to expand the topic and go deeper into related psychology concepts. Use these concepts to link back to students’ experiences with first impressions, and to add depth to Miranda’s character development. Student might begin to understand what Marcus means about “common sense” hindering Miranda’s understanding.
Personal Response Prompt
