The Boy Who Dared

Instructions
Hide
While you’re reading, analyzing, and finishing The Boy Who Dared, create a Double-Entry Journal. You will submit this assignment after you’ve finished the book, but you will be adding to it as you read and right away since you’d already read the first half. A Double-Entry journal is a strategy that enables students to record their responses to a text as they read. Students write down phrases or sentences from their assigned reading and then write their own reaction to that passage. Your journal will consist of the following columns for journaling:

Section 1: Conflict from text (include a quote with the page number), (One conflict from Part 1 of the novel and One conflict from part 2 of the novel, so TWO conflicts total)
Section 2: Type of Conflict LABEL either External/Internal (with correlating sub categories), and
Section 3: Resolutions/Failures (from the text DIRECT QUOTE or creative).
Let’s break each section down, so that it makes sense.

Section 1: Conflict from the text. While you’re reading, look for conflict. In literature, a conflict is a literary element that involves a struggle between two opposing forces usually a protagonist and an antagonist. In this column, you will include the conflict from the text. Make sure to use a DIRECT QUOTE and include the page number.

Section 2: Type of Conflict. The video that you viewed before this assignment should help with this one. Make sure to include External or Internal and the correlating sub categories that apply. For example:

External Conflict: Character vs. Character(s), Character vs. Nature, or Character vs. Society
Internal Conflict: Character vs. Self (happens inside their minds). If you use this one, point out if it’s Character vs. a Decision or Character vs. Identity.

Section 3: Resolutions/Failures: Did this conflict get resolved or did it fail? You need to write how the conflict resolved or failed in the text and if it didn’t, how would you have resolved the conflict in the novel. Be creative. This section should include at least 2 complete sentences.

***You need to include with this assignment at least 1 Conflict from Part 1 of the novel and at least 1 Conflict from Part 2 of the novel. Total you should have at least 4 conflicts. Make sure to number each, so that it correlates with each column.

Here is an EXAMPLE of what your Double Entry Journal should look like and one example:

Conflict from Text (quote and page #)

Type of Conflict

Resolution/Failure

“In a cell on the ground floor, the light shifts dark shapes into a small stool, a scrawny table, and a bed made of wooden boards with no mattress or blanket. On that bed, a thin, huddled figure, Helmuth, a boy of seventeen, lies awake. Shivering. Trembling.” Pg. 3

External Conflict: Man vs. Nature
Helmuth is stuck in the cold prison, so this is a fail because he never gets away or warm. He wishes that he could be warm and escape.
