The Things They Carried - Chapters 8 and 9

For class today, Monday, April 14th, you read two chapters in The Things They Carried: "The Dentist" and "Sweetheart of the Song Tra Bong."

You wrote a journal response addressing these questions:

• What new ideas / issues do these chapters introduce?
• What variations on previous ideas / issues do they include?

In class you worked in groups for two tasks:

• To create a poster illustrating the transformation of the character Mary Anne in the chapter "Sweetheart of the Song Tra Bong" using at least three images and three quotations.
• To share the work you did on chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 based on this worksheet from Friday.
