   Respond to your original goal on Google Classroom. There is an example posted.
2. READ! YAY!

I'm giving you a graphic organizer to use for this. 

DIRECTIONS:

On the back of your sheet, answer the following question:
How has Brian changed over the course of the novel?
(Hint: answering this in 1-2 sentences, but with detail,
will hopefully turn into your thesis for your essay! Yay!)

1. In each of Brian's heads, draw pictures or write words to represent what Brian is like as a person or what his attitude is. 
2. In between Old and New, write any similarities you see between old Brian and new Brian
3. On the lines below each head, paraphrase at least one example from the story for old and new Brian.
4. On the back of your sheet, answer the following question: How has Brian changed over the course of the novel? (Hint: answering this in 1-2 sentences, but with detail, will hopefully turn into your thesis for your essay! Yay!)
