Assignment:
Today the students took part in a writing activity and discussion using Adam's Song that helped them connect the characters in the book with the lyrics of the song. They were able to use their writing journals to explore characters other than Ponyboy to prepare for their Character Project.

We reviewed chapters 6-8 and discussed chapters 9-12.

The students have a quiz over chapters 8-12 on Friday.

The test over The Outsiders will be next Tuesday.

The Character Project will be due next Friday.
