In chapter 5, Pony Boy recited the poem to Johnny. He finds meaning in the words. The students have written paragraph for me in which they have discussed their personal interpretation of the poem as well as how it relates to the lives of the greasers. I am looking forward to reading them this weekend.
Next week, we will read chapter 6 on Monday and explore another literature circle role in the second block. On Tuesday there will be a quiz on Chapters 4, 5, and 6. We will more than likely read Chapter 7 towards the end of next week.
All the best for the weekend!
