This file contains directions on how to write a found poem, and requires students to write one for a book they are reading independently. The students will choose a passage in their novel that they'd like to summarize using a found poem, then they identify words and phrases from the text that they'll incorporate.It includes the directions, a writer's checklist, a reflection for the students to complete after their poem, and a question at the end that requires them to switch poems with a partner where they have to summarize the section of text their partner wrote about. If they can, their partner's poem was successful in summarizing the text! If not, their partner should go back and revise.

This 2-page assignment requires students to make an inference and a prediction based on 6 quotes pulled from pages 69-88, which is the first half of chapter 4. They make predictions and inferences about TJ's character, TJ and Stacey's friendship, Mr. Morrison's character, the situation with Mr. Tatum, When TJ "goes back for his cap", and the incident at the Wallace Store based on quotes from the text. You could have them do it while reading individually, with a partner, or in a small group. It could be done during or after reading the assigned pages.

This is an activity that requires students to practice indirect characterization. It works best with chapter 4. Students read 6 quotes that I post around the room, and write in their journals what each one says about Ponyboy's self-image.

Next, they have to select an additional quote from the novel that reveals a different character's personality. They have to write one paragraph about this person’s character that they can infer from the quote.

This file contains directions for you to post on the overhead or at each table, as well as the 6 quotes for you to post around the room or in a packet for each table to look at. It also includes an example paragraph I wrote for quote #4.
