Outsiders Micro CERS Prompt for Chapters 3


Chapter 3

*Spoiler Alert*

PROMPT – Cherry tells Ponyboy, “… if I see you in the hall at school or someplace and don’t say hi, well, it’s not personal or anything, but… we couldn’t let our parents see us with you all,” (45 – 46).

Write a micro C.E.R.S. on whether you believe that Cherry’s publicly not acknowledging her friendship with Ponyboy (because he is a Greaser) is “personal” or not.

CLAIM – Mention the title, author and type of media.  Turn the prompt into a clear position.  (1 sentence)

EVIDENCE – State the best evidence to support your claim.  It may be a quotation from the text, or the best single point to prove your argument.  (1 sentence)

REASONING – Use logic to explain and elaborate how your evidence proves your claim.  (2 – 4 sentences).

SYNTHESIS – Briefly restate the claim using different wording
