a.) you feel strongly about
b.) evokes an emotional response or memory for you
Maybe the quote stirs up a memory for you, makes you feel good, makes you question something, or causes any other particularly strong reaction.
Tasks:
1) Split a piece of paper in half vertically (so you have a left side of the page and a right side of the page)
2) At the top of the left column, write QUOTE
3) At the top of the right column, write RESPONSE
4) In the left column, you will record quotes (be sure to include the page number the quote comes from) from the novel that affect you in some way. In the right column, you will write down why you chose this quote and explain why it's important/what it makes you think of/why you chose it.
*EXAMPLE:
Quote: "He yelled around the house, into the front yard, and into the van, covering all sounds of a small escape in the trees." (pg. 4)
Response: This quote makes me feel amazed that a brother would let himself be captured and also make noise so the other brother can escape. That's crazy, and I wonder what my brother would do. I wonder what I would do in the same situation.
*NOTE: You should be making at least 1 entry for every chapter
