i have to write about "how sally morgan changes during the course of my place". What are some points i could start with. she didnt change that much. she was always curious and kept pressuring her family into change.

Thanks

i reckon its more a changing perspective than self
ive always thought that, but hey, the AOS is changing self.
the most obvious example of change is through maturity and self discovery, which are basically intertwined - meaning as she slowly develops in maturity/age, she begins to learn more and more about herself and her environment - who she is. Like at the beginning, she doesnt understand why the teacher payed her out, cos she was only young, but we all kno its coz she was black.
There are a lot of things like these u can use as evidence from the book, but the main idea is that sally changed from being ignorant and acceptant of her culture, to becoming involved and determined to open herself up to greater knowledge of her place, while also providing a catalyst for change in her mum, nan and to an extent, arthur.

Yes, this was an annoying text for Changing Self.

Just look at her acceptance of her aboriginality and family's past, her indepence and defience oif authority and her emotional development.

i know this doesnt answer your question, but seeing as sally's chanegs were so damn vague, look more closely at the other characters to fill in space. Daisy, Gladys and Jill all do their fair bit of change, too, ie sally's curiosity incites changes in all o fthem, towards acceptance of them selves...perhaps you could include this as consequences of sally's changing.

its a shit text tho!
