Freshmen,
Please respond to the prompt below to receive credit for your outside reading. Your response should be roughly 150-250 words. This is due by Monday, December 7th.
In many works of literature, there is a character who serves as a voice of reason. This character is someone who offers advice, who tries to lead someone else in the right direction, or tries to help another character overcome his problems. The voice of reason may or may not be heeded by other characters, and may be a friend, a teacher, a mentor, a classmate, or even a character's own conscience.
Choose the character from your book that best fits the definition of a "voice of reason." Explain how he/she fills this role by discussing 2-3 specific examples from your book. You may discuss more than one character if necessary.
Make sure you include the title and author of your book. Also, include your name and class period at the end of your entry.
Thanks!!
