Carly’s
Voice

(Tansley Reads Rating: 61%)
Icebreaker
What if something happened to
you and you weren’t able to communicate?
How would that affect everything in your life?
Questions
Divide the group into three smaller groups and hand
out the following questions one at a time.
Give them 10-20 min. to discuss each question and then bring them back
together to compare their thoughts.
1. What are the obligations
of society to a person like Carly? How
much help should each child be entitled to?
2. What are a family’s
responsibilities to their “normal” children when faced with caring for a
severely disabled child? Did the
Fleischmann family fulfil these responsibilities?
3. If we are integrating children with
exceptionalities into regular classrooms, what is the benefit to them and to
the other children in the classroom? Are
there negatives?
Quick round: What did you
think of the book? Is there anything you want to discuss that we missed?
