The Diving Bell and The Butterfly Lesson

Aim: How could we understand the mindset Jean Dominique Bauby goes through by each day?

Quick Write: What's one food dish you haven't ate in a long time? Close your eyes and imagine it right in front of you. Can you taste, smell, feel the food dish?

Today's Activity: Students will choose to read "The Diving Bell and The Butterfly" by Jean Dominique Bauby together or individually. Create a Mind Map using our notes of what we already know and what we will read on pages 23-39 of the text. We should be able to identify and define words that we don't understand.

Here's my Mind Map

Reflection: From what we read pages 23-39, What can you tell about Jean Dominique Bauby's Mindset of memory? Is his memories taunting him or helping him?
