7th Grade--9/16

Today we took a comprehension quiz on the end of The Outsiders and then discussed the end of the novel, focusing on Sodapop and Sandy, Dally's death, and Ponyboy's reaction to the deaths. After our discussion, I talked about the end of childhood theme that we see in the novel, and demonstrated how we might track a character's transition from child to adult. Students then practiced this for one of the characters in the book and we shared our ideas.
