A-BAND: CITR CHAPTERS 20 & 21

1) Write a response, choosing a line and explaining it's significance to you. Please remember: no plot re-cap! Share your analysis, make connections to the world, ask questions, and deepen your thinking-- this one is up to you where you want to go with your response, but please make sure that your writing has depth to it. What meaning does this passage reveal? A 3-sentence blog post is not sufficient! 

2) Don't forget to respond to someone else's post! Answer their questions, or pose a question of your own! 

Try some of these sentence starters: 

"I wonder why..."
"I'm surprised that..."
"I don't understand..."
"I was struck by..."
"It's interesting that..."
"I'm bothered that..."
"The central issue here seems to be..."
"If I were a character inside this text..."
