The Outsiders Chapter One

Today we started reading The Outsiders and read through two-thirds of chapter one. Afterward, we worked on analyzing dialogue to determine what it reveals about a character. Usually when students write, they explain  personalities whereas authors use dialogue as a way to convey different aspects of a character. It is a way to show the personality instead of telling.
