The
Outsiders
Objective:
Students will connect the content and ideas of the story to their
everyday life. They will also
create a poster to represent “Tuff.”
Material:
copy of the book, study guide, access to computers
Lesson:
students will orally read chapters 9 & 10 and complete study guide
and participate in class discussion.
Students will make a “Tuff” poster in
Microsoft Word. They will insert
pictures of things that they believe are “tuff” (in other words, things that
are “cool”). They will be given
a total of 45 minutes to complete this task.
This goes with the essential question “How does the author get you to
believe in standing up for what you believe, even if those around you don’t
agree with you.”
Evaluation:
Study guide, discussion, completion of a journal entry, “Tuff” poster
