Exploring Beyond the Novel

Extension Activities

The two assignments below will complete your exploration of "The Outsiders". The first assignment attempts to understand what was meant by the comments in the novel about "staying gold". A poem by Robert Frost will help us with this concept.

"Nothing Gold can Stay" Student Response

The final assignment will bring the Greasers and the Socs together again for one last rumble as we attempt to create a perfect camp where the needs of both groups can be satisfied.
