Ms. Simek’s comments from the 812 Discussion group.

How has Ponyboy's attitude towards Darry changed by the end of Chapter 6?

Make sure you provide two examples to support your answer.

Today, as a tool to practice chunking and get to know our writer, Sherman Alexie, better, we read the essay "Superman and Me." For those of you who are not familiar with the Superman comic book series, Superman is a hero from the planet Krypton who poses as a human named Clark Kent. He works hard to protect the city Metropolis, the nation, and the world from any and all forces of evil.

Why does Alexie title his piece “Superman and Me”? Consider in what ways he is like Superman. While this does not need to be in formal reading response structure, I would like a MINIMUM of two examples from the essay that prove your ideas.
