Snow days

Soon we are likely to get a day or two off of school due to snow.  What do you think the greasers would do on a snow day?  What do you think the Socs would do on a snow day?

Make sure to expand on your answers, explaining why you think each group would engage in the activities.

Writing briefly

Write a main idea statement based on any character in The Outsiders other than Darry.  Support your statement with three details, listed as bullet points below your statement.  Below is an example using Darry.


Darry is under a lot of pressure in his daily life.
   - He has to work two jobs to support himself and his brothers financially.
   - He has to make sure Ponyboy does well in school, so that Pony can reach his potential.
   - He was unprepared for this role, since it landed in his lap when his parents were killed.
