  • A Series of Unfortunate Events
    A Teacher’s Guide to Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events www.lemonysnicket.com www.lemonysnicket.com A Teacher’s Guide to Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events Dear Educator, Teachers tend to be noble people, because there are few deeds nobler than interesting a young person in a good book. Even in the noblest of professions, however, there can be a few bad apples, an expression which here means “teachers who would rather interest their students in something unpleasant.” The books in A Series of Unfortunate Events, for instance, include man-eating leeches, large vocabulary words, and a talentless vice principal who subjects his students to six- hour violin recitals. In fact, the only thing worse for an impressionable young mind than a book in A Series of Unfortunate Events is an attractively packaged and inexpensively priced paperback book in A Series of Unfortunate Events. Unless you’re a bad apple, you’d be much better off folding this teaching guide into a paper airplane and sailing it straight out your classroom window. Wouldn’t you rather teach something else? With all due respect, www.lemonysnicket.com 1 About this Guide The activities in this guide are designed to capitalize on the oddly irresistible genius of Lemony Snicket. In addition to in-depth teaching plans for the first book of the series, The Bad Beginning, you will find extensive across-the-series activities that incorporate the details of Books 2 through 13. Activities can be used for independent readers, small groups, or full classes.Whether used in their entirety or in part, these activities will allow students to become more adept in understanding vocabulary, idioms, anagrams, word choice, character development, and thematic statements.

  • Conspiracy Narratives in Lemony Snicket's a Series Of
    CONSPIRACY NARRATIVES IN LEMONY SNICKET’S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS by © Jillian Hatch A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Memorial University of Newfoundland August 2015 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador ABSTRACT This thesis studies themes of conspiracy in children’s literature through the lens of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events (ASOUE). The evolution of conspiracy theory, from traditional to postmodern, is mirrored in the journey of the Baudelaire children. Starting out as eager detectives, the children develop into survivors, keenly aware of humanity’s many flaws. Despite this dark, conspiracy-laden journey, ASOUE is remarkably enjoyable, largely due to the playfulness with which the theme of conspiracy is treated. The characters, Lemony Snicket (as character, narrator, and author), and the reader all partake in this conspiratorial playfulness; and these modes of play serve to entice the reader into active reading and learning. The themes of conspiracy and play within ASOUE provide the child reader with the tools needed to address and master linguistic challenges, to overcome anxieties, and to engage with our frequently scary and chaotic world by way of realistic optimism. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thanks are due to many people who have provided assistance, knowledge, support, and enduring patience during the long writing process. I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Christopher Lockett, whose critical passion and insights enabled me to shape this material, and whose encouragement allowed me to reinvigorate a long-dormant project. Many thanks also to Danine Farquharson and Jennifer Lokash for their generous assistance, and to Andrew Loman and Naomi Hamer, whose advice and insights have been greatly appreciated.

  • How Unfortunate
    How Unfortunate... The Austere Academy by Lemony Snicket and Brett Helquist ISBN: 9780064408639 Binding: Hardback Series: A Series of Unfortunate Events Publisher: HarperCollins Pub. Date: 2000-08-08 Pages: 240 Price: $17.50 NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES As the three Baudelaire orphans warily approach their new home Prufrock Preparatory School, they can't help but notice the enormous stone arch bearing the school's motto Memento Mori or "Remember you will die." This is not a cheerful greeting and certainly marks an inauspicious beginning to a very bleak story just as we have come to expect from Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, the deliciously morbid set of books that began with The Bad Beginning and only got worse. The Bad Beginning by Lemony Snicket and Brett Helquist ISBN: 9780064407663 Binding: Hardback Series: Series of Unfortunate Events Publisher: HarperCollins Pub. Date: 1999-08-25 Pages: 176 Price: $17.50 Dear Reader, I'm sorry to say that the book you are holding in your hands is extremely unpleasant. It tells an unhappy tale about three very unlucky children. Even though they are charming and clever, the Baudelaire siblings lead lives filled with misery and woe. From the very first page of this book when the children are at the beach and receive terrible news, continuing on through the entire story, disaster lurks at their heels. One might say they are magnets for misfortune.In this short book alone, the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune, and cold porridge for breakfast.It is my sad duty to write down these unpleasant tales, but there is nothing stopping you from putting this book down at once and reading something happy, if you prefer that sort of thing.With all due respect,Lemony Snicket The Bad Beginning Or, Orphans! by Lemony Snicket and Brett Helquist ISBN: 9780061146305 Binding: Paperback Series: A Series of Unfortunate Events Publisher: HarperCollins Pub.

  • SUE Classroom Kit
    Grades 3–5 of Unfortunat ries e Ev Se ent A s CLASSROOM AACTIVITYCTIVITY KIT KIT Dear Brave Teacher, If you have never heard of A Series of Unfortunate Events, consider yourself lucky. These books tell an unhappy tale about three very unlucky children, who despite being clever and charming, lead lives filled with misery and woe. You may know teachers of questionable character who would not hesitate to recommend these books to their students. Do not follow their example! If your pupils enjoy cheerful stories with happy endings, they would be much better off reading some other books. If these nefarious books find their way into your classroom, take heed. Proceed with extreme caution and definitely use this Series of Unfortunate Events Teacher’s Activity Guide. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket AWFUL ALTER EGOS Rhyme and Alliteration Count Olaf and his crew often wear disguises and create aliases. Discuss the term alias with the class. Have students invent aliases of their own. They may choose to scramble up the letters in their names to make an anagram. For example, an anagram of the name Brian could be Nirba. Students may also use alliteration to confuse others. For example, Susan might call herself “Superstitious Susan.” Finally, students can create rhyming names for themselves, such as Sad Brad. YOU’RE A POET AND MAY NOT KNOW IT! Language Arts Isadora and Duncan Quagmire are two of the Baudelaires’ closest friends. Isadora is a poet. In The Vile Village, she uses a two-line form of poetry known as a couplet to give clues to the Baudelaires about where Count Olaf has hidden them.
