  5. Family tree Create a family tree, with three details about the characterization of each character in The House of the Spirits so far. • Include any foreshadowing you know about the character and any magic realism Allende uses for the character. • You should each have your own family tree, but you may discuss with others to create it and “put the pieces” together.

  6. Discussion • Why would the author use two narrators? • What time period does the novel take place in? • What is the relationship between the characters? • Is Esteban good or bad for Tres Marias? What makes Esteban the way that he is? Do you like him as a character? • What do you know, based on foreshadowing, is going to happen? • What examples of magic realism did you see?

  7. Develop two discussion questions • Write two questions you have about what is happening, or discussion questions for these chapters.

  8. Discussion • Exit ticket: • Who is one character that stands out to you so far, and how is the author (Allende) using characterization, foreshadowing and/or magic realism in describing that character?
