I know what you're thinking.... "this sounds a little morbid"... "why obituaries and epitaphs?!?" "Uhhhh... what is an Epitaph?!?". Well, for those of you who haven't read the Outsiders (which you should!!!), this novel is full of great opportunities to write from a variety of different purposes... especially when S.E. Hinton, the author, decides to kill off some major characters... 😭 #illalwaysloveyoujohnnycake
After chapter 11, students used textual evidence & their own inferences to create an epitaph (tomb poem or saying remembering the deceased) and obituary for Johnny Cade.

My students did an excellent job with this challenge!!
