Chapter 6 analysis

Consists of Bigger lying to the police about the murder of a white girl. Then tries to cover it up acting like dumb a black boy so they would not think it was him.

Evauluation

Is there better solution to dealing with Bigger?

I guess that there could be but I know that the way he needs to learn is to be scared and shown that he could be better than what he is.

Synthesis

Why don't I devise a plan to deal with Bigger?

I think Bigger should go to jail and learn what will happen if you break the law so he will not be tempted to do anything when he gets out. I think that will make him act different. 

Analysis

Can I compare my life to the life of  Bigger?

No I don't beileve our life is anything alike because the family is different he has no role models. The only thing similar is the neighborhood but the camparison basically shows him getting it worse. 

Application

What question would I ask Bigger if I knew him?

I would ask him does he think if he did not grow up in a bad neighborhood would he have turned better?



Comprehension

What do you think the differences are between Bigger and Gus?

I think Gus is a little more soft spoken than Bigger and doesn't pretend to be something he's not.
Bigger on the other hand pretends to be tough is a good liar and isn't really sure who he is.

Knowledge

What happened after Bigger caught the rat?

His mother began telling him that he was basically worthless and would not amount to nothing.

chapter3 analysis

Chapter 3 consisted of Bigger and Gus arguing about the robbery that bigger wanted to commit. Him and Gus began arguing back and fourth about should they go because he knew Bigger was really scared. Then after bigger makes Gus scared with the knife they end up saying there going to go do the robbery

Chapter 1 analysis

Chapter one just showed you the place Bigger lived and how life was. Even though they tried to make it seem as though it was about the rat it wasn't it was just used to show you the relationship between Bigger and his family to show you that Bigger was all alone even in his own house

NHD

Nhd was a great experience I learned a lot and I was really intrested in it. I did a paper on Al Capone which showed how much money he made and how he survived in bootlegging and why he was known as was one of the most dangerous person in the 1930's. If I could do this again I would have chosen to do a board because I feel as though I had a project that should have been on a board and didn't use every bit of info at my fingertips
