Title - The Outsiders novel warm-up
By - Christine Helwig
Primary Subject - Language Arts
Secondary Subjects -
Grade Level - 7-12
This warm-up activity is designed to last 30-45 minutes depending on the length of the class discussions. This is designed to begin a novel unit for The Outsiders.
Warm-up before reading The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton:
-Put two chart papers up on the wall.
-Divide the class in half. Have one class brainstorm "cliques" and one brainstorm "gangs."
-Have students put their answers on the chart paper.
-Students will see that cliques and gangs are quite similar.
-Discuss the similarities and differences.
-Draw the connection of gangs having a "turf" and cliques ostracizing students in the lunchroom. (Each clique has a set table that they sit at.)
-Discuss that in The Outsiders the main characters belong to a gang.
-Students will (hopefully) look at gangs and cliques differently as they read the book.
