Social Class and The Outsiders

IN GROUPS-
1. Put on your sociology lens to analyze the story.  Let's get intellectually critical.
2. Discuss your answers to the film questions.
3. Write down 7-10 connections you made between The Outsiders and sociology.  These should be interesting, striking connections, not just:  "Ponyboy lives in society."
