  6. The Outsiders Major Theme Social Injustice

  7. Life is about choices? • One choice leads to another. • What might have happened if Pony and Johnny had gone to Darry instead of Dally? • How might the outcome have changed?

  8. ARE THE CHOICES WE MAKE THE RIGHT ONES? • Do the people we hang around with affect us positively or negatively? • What about the idiom, “When you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas?” • Do you agree or disagree?

  9. WHO REALLY INFLUENCES US? • Is it a group thing • or • Is it an individual • thing?

  10. SOCIALINJUSTICE • Abuse – Johnny being abused at home. • Neglect What was the only thing Bob ever wanted? Poor role models. • Rich vs. Poor- Cherry can’t say hello to Ponyboy in school • Gangs • Fighting Does fighting ever solve a problem? Is there ever really a victor? What did Randy tell Ponyboy about fighting? (it doesn’t solve anything. Greasers will still be greasers and Socs will still be Socs.)

  11. Johnny Cade- He looked liked a little dark puppy that had been kicked too many times.

  12. Social ClassRich vs. Poor Does having money solve problems? Does it guarantee success? Does it make one a better student? Can coming from a disadvantaged background make one a poor student? What about Darry? Ponyboy? Does money guarantee happiness?

  13. Moral • We all have problems. • Problems break social barriers, racial barriers, and religious barriers. • NO ONE is immune. • If we work together to lift each other when one falls and cheer him when he succeeds, then we have done our job. • United we stand - divided we fall.

  14. Essay TopicLife Choices You will write a persuasive essay explaining to younger teens that one choice often leads to another. I want you to analyze the choices that you have made or are making now. Discuss how these are negatively or positively affecting you or those around you that you care about. If negative choices are causing your life to go into a downward spin, what might you do to stop this downward spiral before you lose control? What advice would you give to younger teens to persuade them to make better, more positive life choices?

  15. INTRODUCTION Have you ever done something that you know is wrong, yet you are not quite sure how to right the wrong? As teens, we all face situations and circumstances just like this. However, the way we approach the problems that we have now such as beginning to hang around with the wrong crowd, lying to our parents, or choosing to have premarital sex are some of the choices that we must make the right decisions for long term reasons.

  16. CONCLUSION Teens are facing many pressures that their parents did not have to address, but some pressures remain the same. For example, our parents were not exposed to the rampant and widespread use of drugs; however, the urge to lie to their parents and participate in premarital sex was an issue then. Regardless of the pressures that are readily available to entangle us teens, we must be prepared to arm ourselves in the war against peer pressures that teens face today and make better life choices for a brighter tomorrow.

  17. Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold, Her early leaf’s a flower, But only so an hour, Then leaf subsides to leaf, So Eden sank to grief, Dawn goes down to day, Nothing gold can stay. Robert Frost
