List the connection and write a paragraph for each explaining how and why you made the connection. 1.) I can connect with holden, because he sees the futility in school. Why try at all the pointless subjects that will never help you in life? i am never going to need to know how to use imaginary numbers, or how light travels through air and other things. He fails at all the subjects, except english, because it doesnt interest him. That is how i can connect with holden. 2.) also when holden got a talking to from his history teacher, it reminded me of when i've gotten talked to by teachers about the effort i put into classes. it is not a fun experience, and i can relate to how he felt, altho i have never done bad enough to flunk out.

Day 2 Connector/ Artistic Adventurer For this role, you have two options: (1) make connections to the reading, or (2) artistically interpret the reading. Option #1: Connector Name: __Book:__ _ __Assignment: page to page Literature Circle's Name:__ _ As the Connector, it is your job to find connections between the novel your group is reading and the outside world. This means connection the reading to: Think about a minimum of two connections%Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Cache-Control: max-age=0 today's reading reminded you of. List the connection and write a paragraph for each explaining how and why you made the connecti on. 1.)I can connect with Holden when he is getting into a physical fight with Stradlater. I can relate to him because when I was younger I would always get mad at my older brother and pick fights that I couldn't win just because I was angry with him. I know how Holden feels that even though he has more of a reason to fight he can't win because the person who he is picking fights with is physically bigger then him. 2.)Another way I can connect with Holden is that I used to have his same temper and attitude when I wouldn't get my way. Like how Holden would curse at everyone and talk down about anything just because he got his ass whooped. The only difference between his temper and how mine used to be is I would never seriously run away from all of my problems by hopping on a train to New York and waiting for my mom and dad to come get me.

Option #1: Connector Name: Jessica Vaeth __Book:__ Catcher in the rye_ __Assignment: page 88 to page 113 Literature Circle's Name:DJBJ__ _ As the Connector, it is your job to find connections between the novel your group is reading and the outside world. This means connection the reading to: Think about a minimum of two connections today's reading reminded you of. List the connection and write a paragraph for each explaining how and why you made the connecti on. 1.) With this section chapter 14 reminds me of the movie pretty woman. She is a prostitute and goes up the elevator into the hotel room where he is staying. This also happens in the book where the elevator operator sends a prostitute up to his room. Also in the movie and the book the price starts low but later on the price is somehow higher then what he said in the first place. Also during the movie he does not treat her like a prostitute and just have sex with her because he feels like it. In the book he decides that he no longer wants her services. 2.) In chapter 13 I get reminded about myself and the situation I have been through. I had my phone stolen out of the locker room and the theif was never caught. The school decided not to try to look for it because they felt it was not important. I wanted to know who stole my phone and fought the school for a while. I also called the phone and left the theif a message saying they better hope i do not find them because when i do they will regret taking it. I relate to Holden because he might act and say things that make him seem tough but he really isnt and he is all talk.

This means connection the reading to: Think about a minimum of two connections today's reading reminded you of. List the connection and write a paragraph for each explaining how and why you made the connecti on. 1.)The beginning of chapter 19 starts with Holden talking to his friend Luce. This reminds me of having a conversation with a friend that you haven't seen in a long time and how it can be really awkward because you don't know what to talk about. Holden bringing up topics that Luce doesn't want to talk about is how I feel when I talk with an old friend because there are things you don't want to discuss but they keep bringing up bad things to talk about. 2.)The beginning of chapter 20 reminds me of creepy guys you see in movies and TV shows where they sit on a bar stool and stare at girls trying to get with them. Holden is the creepy kind of guy that does this because his sex life sucks and must be pretty desperate if he drinks underage inside of bars and eyes up old ugly women.
