Ender's Game: What does leadership cost?

For Ender's Game we made a work cited and talked about the original publication date. If Ender's Game was originally written in 1977 (and even earlier as a short story) what was the world like in the 1960-70's that would have influenced the author? How would living in this time period have changed the way you view leadership? How might it have changed you relationship with your parents?

Study guide questions may be added to your notes page, printed, or typed. Located on Google Classroom. :)

There are some easy steps to help you focus on your reading and what to annotate. Writers do write so that you have a relationship with the text. Just like your relationship with anyone- there are first impressions and introductions; you have to repeat yourself sometimes because people forget; you have to make mistakes, feel awkward, angry, hopeful, and sad; you have to share experiences and find understanding. Read not for the ending, but for the journey. Since we know these things are there- we should be able to make a list of conversation starters and relationship builders. For now we are going to walk through them slowly and show them too you. Because, after all, we are building a relationship with reading.
