Choose and sketch a symbol that represents ponyboy, sodapop, darry, johnny, cherry, two-bit, dallas (dally) and randy

Ponyboy - book

He is the thinker and dreamer of the group. A book would be the perfect symbol for him as he values his education and loves to read. He chose to write a book for his English theme.

Sodapop - rope for tug of war

Soda says he constantly feels as though he is being pulled in two different directions when Darry and Ponyboy fight. He does not like to be the man in the middle.

Darry - Atlas holding the rock

This would be a good symbol for Darry as he feels that he is responsible for anything that happens to the family and in part also anything that happens with the rest of the Greasers. He gave up what could've been a college education when his parents died to stay home and keep the family together. This responsibility weighs on him just like Atlas's rock.

Johnny - puppy

Johnny is a scared puppy. Ponyboy calls him the "pet" of the gang. They are always looking out for him. He is not wanted at home and is frequently abused when he is home.

Cherry - two different colored cherries, black and white

This would be a good symbol for cherry, because her name is Cherry. They should be different colors: black and white. On the one hand she is a Soc and seen as pure and good by society. However, she also supports the Greasers by spying for them and testifying on behalf of Ponyboy.

Two-Bit - Mickey Mouse or Chocolate Cake

Two-Bit is still a child. Even though he's an older member of the group, he is resistant to growing up. He would choose to eat dessert for every meal and loves watching Mickey Mouse cartoons. One of these symbols would be best because it represents his childlike behaviors.

Dallas - fist

Dally is always looking for a fight. He is constantly antagonizing people. Cherry sees through his bravado and sees that he is just sad and lonely. However, his constant aggression gets him into all kinds of trouble.

Randy - football letter jacket

This represents Randy's jock and Soc status. It shows his socio-economic standing as well as the possibility for him to attend college as a jock. At the end of the novel, he tries to shed this label.

in 1636, roger williams settled at the tip of narragansett bay after being banished from the massachusetts bay colony for his religious views, on land granted to him by the narragansett tribe. he called the site "providence plantation" and declared it a place of religious freedom.

explanation:

the play romeo and juliet was one of the most famous love tragedies ever written. this love story unfortunately had a fatal ending. many people argue over why the lovers had died, was it over free will or fate?  

the death of romeo and juliet was partially because of free will. the fact that romeo and juliet got married knowing that there was a bitter feud between their families, the montague and capulet’s. this feud brought on many problems, such as the murder of tybalt by romeo. juliet knew that this might be a problem for her and romeo. juliet had said: “what’s in a name”? which explains her ill fate of being a capulet and romeo being a montague. when romeo tells his servant “ ay, mine own…show more content…

i believe they had died over the love they had for each other, strong enough that their lives could end so suddenly if something horrible had come between them, and that was exactly how it happened. this tragedy occurred within five days of the two meeting, they experienced love at first sight, got married and quickly were dead. free will became a part of this when juliet decided to take friar laurence’s advise in inhaling a potion that will make people assume she is died but will awake in 42 hours prier to when she took it. when romeo had heard the news that juliet was dead, he assumed it was true, and responded with the line; “well juliet, i will lay with thee tonight”. to me this line indicated how he feels for juliet by dying in her will. the fact that free will didn’t take control of the story; it left fate to be the murder of the lovers. fate first kicked in when their eyes met at the capulet party. when romeo and juliet spoke, their words had powerful contentment; they had such a strong feeling for one another that they could lay in each other’s arms forever. their happiness didn’t last long; there were many reasons for this, for example; the marriage lord capulet arranged between paris and juliet. i believe that the plot of the play thus far leads the audience to believe that the deaths were a result of fate. the last act will determine once and for all if it is fate or free will. romeo again challenges fate.
