In this lesson, students explore Chapter 5 of “The Breadwinner,” focusing on the dangers Parvana faces when going to the market under Taliban rule. The discussion encourages students to empathize with Parvana’s fear of going shopping alone and whether it is reasonable, urging them to put themselves in her position. They also meet a new character, Mrs. Weera, and are prompted to gather information about her as they progress through the chapter.
