ARE YOU AN ADHD?



ADHD= Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Being diagnosed with ADHD has led to Percy being labelled in a certain way. 

     Behaviour associated with ADHD : 

  • difficulty concentrating, except on tasks that he enjoys
  • difficulty learning something new
  • poor organisational skills
  • trying to do several things at once
  • impulsive behaviour 
  • failure to think of consequences...

 Now answer these questions:
 
      1.- Do you think that Percy behaves in this way?
      2.- If he does, why might he do that? 
      3.- Could any of his behaviour be useful to his status as a demigod? 
      4.- Does his behaviour change during his first summer at Camp Half-Blood?

FILMS OR BOOKS?



This film is based on a book:


Inspired by the film to read all five Percy Jackson books?

  • Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
  • Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters
  • Percy Jackson and the Titan’s Curse
  • Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth
  • Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian


QUESTIONS:


1.- What other books can you think of that have become films?
2.- What sort of book do you think makes the best film and why?
3.- Think of when you last saw the film of a book you have read: how was the film the same and how was it different? If it was different, did you mind?
