Language Arts Students Dialogue with Wena Poon

Deeply moved by a story in the Sec 4 Language Arts text ‘CrossWorlds: Short Stories on Global Themes’, Chen Heng-Yi of S409, invited author Wena Poon, who wrote ‘Development’, to the school. Language Arts students gathered to meet Ms Poon and to pose questions that ranged from writer’s intent to character development and themes that paved the way to a rich and well-paced discussion, giving students the opportunity to take learning beyond the text and the classroom.
