First, let me say that you are all such wonderful and smart students. Thank you for being respectful, thoughtful and hard working. It is noticed and appreciated.
Your homework for tonight:
Option one:
1. Why do you think Miss O’Brien warns Steve not to write anything in his notebook that he doesn’t want the prosecutor to see?
2. Why do you think Steve is becoming more and more concerned about what Miss O’Brien thinks about him?
3. How have Steve’s fears changed as he has gone through this experience?
4. James King says, "When Bobo shows, he shows correct but sometime he act like a spaceman or something." What does the simile James King uses to describe Bobo Evans reveal about his attitude towards Bobo?
5. In the flashback where James King asks Steve to be lookout, the author ends the scene before the reader can learn Steve’s answer. Why do you think the author does this? What do you predict was Steve’s answer? Why?
Option two:
1. Why does Ernie believe he is not guilty?
2. Do you agree with his argument? Why or why not?
3. Steve says, "Bob’s not Einstein." What literary device is being used here and what does it reveal about character?
See you tomorrow,
Ms. Betsy
