Page__ 1_ Paragraph(s) 1 __The first 3 words of the passage are: IF YOU REALLY Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ I chose this paragraph because it introduces the main character, Holden Caulfield, and gives you a feel for what he is like. He doesn't say much about himself or his childhood because he doesn't feel that is that important, he calls it David Copperfield crap. He also mentions that his parents would have two hemorrhages a piece if he said anything too personal about them in the story. Holden has a brother that is a writer in Hollywood and has a Jaguar and a lot of money. __Page__ 9_ Paragraph(s) 2 __The first 3 words of the passage are:"And how do.. Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ I chose this passage because it is very descriptive and it tells more about the main characters personality. Holden has been to 4 different high schools and he is 17 years old. He's 6' 2" and has plenty of gray hairs, yet people see him as very immature and Holden knows it. Holden says he gets bored acting his age and he doesn't care what people think about him. Even when he does act mature, nooone notices it. He says that people never notice anything. __Page__ 19 _ Paragraph(s)2 __The first 3 words of the passage are:Anyway, I put Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ I chose this paragraph because it's one of the many times in the story where Holden judges people. He introduced Robert Ackley, who was a lonely kid who noone really liked. Holden kind of made fun of his pimples on his face and said that he had had a terrible personality and was a nasty guy. __Day 2 Lexy Hartner The catcher in the rye__ Assignment: 35-58 Literature Circle's Name: Team purple

Page 36_ __Paragraph(s) 1 and on__ The first 3 words of the passage are: neither of us felt. Reason for choice: In this passage Holden asks if Ackley can come along while they go and get hamburgers and watch a movie. This seems confusing to me because Holden doesnt like Ackley very much yet he wants him to go with them. Holden talks about alot of phony people at Pency yet he invites Ackley to come tag along. Does this mean that he himself has a little phony side to him? Page 40_ __Paragraph(s) 1 and on__The first 3 words of the passage are:some things are Reason for choice: This passage talks about how Holden cant stop thinking about Jane and how he really wants to know what she and Stradlater had done on there date. He asks Stradlater what they had done and he isnt very open about it, so Holden keeps asking more questions until he gets the answers he wants. He gets pretty jealous of Stradlater and tries to basically fight him but only punches him in the head. Do you think that eventually Holden will end up seeing or even dating Jane?

Page 45_ __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are: i kept sitting Reason for choice: i chose this passage because at this time, Holden is getting ready to leave Pencey. He doesnt want to wait until wednesday to leave, he just wants to leave now. So he packs all of his stuff while everybody is sleeping. It seems to me that Holden isn't good with confrontation. Even though this may not seem like a big ordeal, it seems like hes running away fron what happend earlier that night. Could this possibly have something to do with why he got kicked out of all those other schools? Possibly he wanted to get kicked out. Maybe he started problems with people and his way of leaving was to run away.

Page 99_ __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are:Finally, though, I Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.) I found this paragraph to be important because he explains how he is atheist. It was surprising to me because he is trying to find ways to make things better and is doing anything possible. Even though he is atheist he is trying to find it in himself to pray. He also makes himself sound crazy when he said he liked the guy in the bible that cut himself with stones. Page110 _ __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are:They let me Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.) I felt that this paragraph was important because it shows the vibe he is giving people. He looks poor and dirty and people didn't think he could afford to pay 10 dollars. Also this shows how Holden is going down hill slowly. Page 115_ __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are: It wasn't as Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)This paragraph talks about a family coming out of church. I think at this point in the novel he begins to miss his own family. It also shows that he is grieving over his brothers death. He also talks about how they look poor and explains that look of the family.

Page136__ _ Paragraph(s) __The first 3 words of the passage are:Anyways, I gave. Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ i chose this passage because it's wierd that Holden always has to have plans to go out on a date with someone. But he doesn't really have any friends, so he calls random people taht he knew from a while back. __Page126__ _ Paragraph(s) __The first 3 words of the passage are:At the end Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ i picked this passage because it explains how judgemental Holden is. He talks about all the phonies outside smoking cigarettes after the show, yet he's doing the same thing with Sally. He also gets jealous about Sally's old friend, George, and this is his first date with her.

__Page__ 118_ Paragraph(s) __The first 3 words of the passage are:It was lousy Reason for choice: (explanation and discussion of passage should be 1-2 full paragraphs.)__ I chose this passage because it really shows how much Holden misses his sister Phoebe.

Page _150 __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are: but when i...... i chose this passage because Holden is very drunk and he decided to call sally. When he calls her, her grandmother answers and asks why hes calling this late at night. He then talks to sally and she gets annoyed with why hes calling because she is trying to sleep. She finally hangs up on Holden because she doesn't want to talk to him anymore. This is an important paragraph because this is a part of Holden who makes him who he is. He is an annoying drunk and people may view him differently because of his actions.

Page 143_ __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are: Old Luce, what.... I chose this paragraph because Holden is talking about Luce and how he was supposed to be his student advisor, but all he did was sit around and talk about sex. I think this is important because Holden already has some issues dealing with how he views women and such, and by his peers influencing him how to think about people doesn't exactly help him out in this situation. I think this is an important passage because what people do in life and how they handle themselves are always being viewed by people whether you like it or not. I think that when people influence you to think a certain way it can change how you act and what you do in life.

Page _150 __Paragraph(s)__ The first 3 words of the passage are: boy i sat I chose this passage because its talking about Holden sitting at a bar getting very drunk and he does not want anybody to notice him. Holden is under age and isnt supposed to be drinking but he does anyways. I think this is an important passage because it seems like throughout the entire book, Holden likes to get drunk instead of doing something with his life. He got kicked out of his schools and he doesnt even care. I think that by him going out and drinking and getting drunk all the time is his way of saying that hes giving up, on everything.

Day 7 Passage Master Name: Jordan Mosser __Book:__ Catcher in the Rye

__Assignment: page to page Literature Circle's Name:__ _

Page 173 Paragraph(s) The first 3 words of the passage are: And I'm standing...... Reason for choice: In this passage, Holden and Phoebe are talking about the lyrics to a song that he has heard and likes. He imagines a bunch of children playing in a field of rye that is so high that the children are going to run off the cliff. He also says how he is there to save them. I think this shows Holden's good side in trying to save the children from running off the cliff. I think he would do so because he can relate to them. This passage is important because, in a way, Holden is the children off the cliff. He cannot see over the rye and is playing or wondering to the edge of a cliff where he will fall off and meet his doom.

Page 186 Paragraph(s) The first 3 words of the passage are: I have a..... Reason for choice: Holden is talking to Mr. Antolini, who tells him that he is on his way into a very hard fall. He says the fall will hurt him and leave him bitter and very frustrated. Mr. Antolini says that he will forever hate people like the guys he went to all his schools with and Holden denies it by saying that he has made friends with some of them. But there is truth behind what Mr. A said. He also says how the fall that he sees is like one where, at the age of thirty, Holden will be stuck in a bar or some dead end job.

Page 213 Paragraph(s) The first 3 words of the passage are: A lot of........ Reason for choice: In this passage, Holden is saying how the phsycoanalyst where he is staying keeps asking him if he is going to try next year or not. Holden keeps saying that he doesn't know whether he will or not. This shows that he has never in his life, made the conscious decision to try to achieve anything in his life. It seems that he never knew that if you want anything, you have to achieve it first in your mind, and this passage shows that he doesn't understand it. __ none //Optional:// a note about this edit for the page history log
