Aiden ThomasA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
Use these questions or activities to help gauge students’ familiarity with and spark their interest in the context of the work, giving them an entry point into the text itself.
Short Answer
1. What are some strategies for countering exclusion? What strides have social institutions (such as education or the workplace) made in recent times toward inclusivity, and what continuing improvements and progress should be prioritized?
Teaching Suggestion: It may be helpful to introduce the topic through a discussion of the school’s own inclusivity policies; alternatively, students might investigate the novel itself as an example of inclusivity, as it is the first work featuring a trans character to appear on The New York Times’s bestseller list. As a concept, inclusivity involves understanding and communicating with appropriate and specific terminology; as such, for this novel study, it may be beneficial for the class to review or discuss terms that may be new to some students, such as “deadnaming,” “gender dysphoria,” and others.
