4 Deadline for ALL work is Mon Dec 18 Notes check for Ch 8-16 All late work Turn in books to the Library Keep Huck Finn over break (don t need to renew) Study Guide Final = whole semester, with most specific questions on Huck Finn

5 Huck and Jim tell each other stories (pg 52-53) What do you notice about Huck and Jim s speech? Style? Pacing? Tone? Emotion? What does the style remind you of?

6 I knowed I was all right now. Nobody else would come a- hunting after me (46) What s sad about that statement? What do you think about the fact that people go looking for Huck s body, but didn t help when he was trapped with Pap? I went exploring around down through the island. I was boss of it; it all belonged to me (46) Why is Huck happy to be on the island? Why, for literary style, does Twain take time to describe the landscape and nature?

7 I hear old missus tell de wider she gwyne to sell me down to Orleans, but she didn want to, but she could git eight hund d dollars for me I lit out mighty quick, I tell you (50) What is Jim s motivation for leaving? Can we sympathize with that concern? Yes; en I s rich now, come to look at it. I owns myself, en I s wuth eight hund d dollars (54) Thinking bigger picture, what does it mean to own yourself? (*cough* *cough* humanity?)

8 I warn t afraid of him telling the people where I was (49) Why would Huck trust Jim not to tell if he asked him to? But you wouldn t tell on me ef I uz to tell you, would you Huck? (50) Why would Jim be willing to trust Huck? it was pretty broad day; so I made Jim lay down in the canoe and cover up with a quilt (58) Why is Huck willing to help hide Jim? (Selfish or caring? We ll have to decide later.)

9 Then I told him the whole thing, and he said it was smart. He said Tom Sawyer couldn t get up no better plan than what I had (50) What did the widow think of Huck s learning? What did Pap think? How does Jim seem different as an adult figure in Huck s life? Come in, Huck, but doan look at his face it s too gashly. Jim throwed some old rags over him (57) What is the significance of covering up a dead man s face? What is Jim trying to do for Huck here? (*cough* *cough* Reverence for the Dead)

10 Be ready to talk about: Superstitious belief/doubt Deception (tricks by Huck) Information gathering

11

12 Nature vs. Nurture Are people more influenced by their DNA, or by their environment? Explain which you think & why.

13 Mon Dec 18 = last day for missing work Be working on your Final Study Guide Return books (except Huck Finn) to the library Read Ch 12 & 13 for tomorrow

14 Pick a page in your notebook Write a couple of the lies we previously talked about Why did Huck lie to the Widow/Miss Watson? Why did Huck lie to Pap? As we talk today, add more examples Think about: Who, When, & Why

15 What did Huck do the day before, that Jim said would bring bad luck? What does Huck do with the dead snake? Why? Why does Huck hide the evidence? How does he seem to feel? I wouldn t ever take a-holt of a snakeskin again with my hands, now that I see what had come of it. Jim said he reckoned I would believe him next time (59) Yet again, what does Huck do before he ll believe what someone s trying to teach him?

16 Why did they suspect Pap of Huck s murder? Does this seem reasonable? What do we know about him? What s happened to him since Huck left? Why do they suspect Jim? As far as we know, is there any evidence to support this idea? Why are people still willing to chase Jim down? How much is the reward for Jim vs. the reward for Pap? They don t explain it, so think: Why the difference?

17 (pg 64 bottom) What does Huck forget about his fake identity? How does he try to play it off? (pg 67) According to Ms. Loftus, how could she tell Huck wasn t a girl? Remember our talk about lying. What gives Huck away? (pg 66) How does Huck get Ms. Loftus to let him leave? What do you think? Is Huck a good liar or a bad one? How have his plans vs. execution worked out so far?

18 What was the consequence of trying to trick Jim? What did he get out of trying to trick Ms. Loftus? But, was he very good at it? Watch going forward: How Huck tries to trick people Whether or not he s successful

19 How are Huck & Jim different? Huck is white. Jim is black. Huck is an adolescent (13). Jim is an adult (30). Huck has money. Jim is a slave. What would happen to Huck if he returned? To Jim? What unites Huck & Jim? Language (dialect) Being away from society Depending on each other for survival Moral lessons

20 What do Jim and Huck do to survive? What adventures does Huck want to go on? Why? Keep a log of the steamboat shenanigans.

21 Day 6

22 Is that true? Are people more willing to defend their physical wellbeing than to defend their ideas? Why do we praise soldiers but criticize protestors?

23 White plantation owners White farmers White business owners White laborers Anyone not white and male Write this down!

24 Ideas from: Younger sons of landed gentry settled in the South British Romantic authors were part of traditional education Beliefs were: Must defend honor and good name above anything else Idealized Medieval knights Extreme version of Emerson s be a great man Lead to foolishness of Civil War Write this down!

25 Why Twain hates the Romantics

26 Watch for Walter Scott Continue to take note of Huck s adventures Why does he get himself into these situations? Why is Jim more hesitant to follow him? Keep thinking about what lessons Jim & Huck are learning

27 Read through Ch 14 for tomorrow Remember to take notes Work on Final Study Guide I STRONGLY SUGGEST you write as much useful info on this as possible I ll be checking in about missing work Semester deadline Mon Dec 18

28 Day 7

29 Word: rapscallion Definition: a misbehaving person Write: Give me a synonym or similar term

31 1. Read your handout a. What is it asking you to look for? 2. Find the quotes in the Huck Finn book a. What s the context? Read a couple sentences before/after 3. Answer the questions in 1-2 sentences a. Be prepared to share.

32 Pap Pap always said it warn t no harm to borrow things if you was meaning to pay them back some time (70) The Widow but the widow said it warn t anything but a soft name for stealing, and no decent body would do it (70) Jim Jim said he reckoned the widow was partly right and pap was partly right; so the best way would be for us to pick out two or three things from the list and say we wouldn t borrow them any more then he reckoned it would be no harm to borrow others (71)

33 Do you reckon Tom Sawyer would ever go by this thing? Not for pie, he wouldn t. He d call it an adventure (72) Why does Huck want to explore everything? Where does Tom get his ideas from? I doan want to go fool n long er no wrack. We s doin blame well, en we better let blame well alone, as de good book says (71) Why is Jim reluctant to join in? Why would he go with Huck anyway?

34 I begun to think how dreadful it was, even for murderers, to be in such a fix. I says to myself, there ain t no telling but I might come to be a murderer myself yet, and then how would I like it? (76) What danger are the robbers in? I wished the widow knowed about it. I judged she would be proud of me for helping these rapscallions, because rapscallions and deadbeats is the kind the widow and good people takes the most interest in (79) Why would Huck want the widow to know about his efforts?

35 but who in the dingnation s a-going to pay for it? (79) Great guns! Is he her uncle? Looky here dart you out to Jim Hornback s and he ll foot the bill Tell him I ll have his niece all safe before he can get to town (79) What convinces the watchman to check out the wreck? She was very deep, and I see in a minute there warn t much chance for anybody being alive in her (79) Why did Twain name the boat Walter Scott, fill it with greedy robbers, then sink it?

36 Twain will start making some really pointed social commentary Who is he calling out? Why? Who does he blame for society s problems? When does he use characters to stand for certain groups? What are their beliefs? Remember, he s writing after the Civil War but sets his story before. This is past and present. Scott s View, Scottish Borders Region

42 Dat truck dah is trash; en trash is what people is dat puts dirst on de head er dey fren s en makes em ashamed (89) Huckleberry = white trash Why is Jim so upset with Huck? It was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a n---; but I done it, and I warn t ever sorry for it afterward, neither (89) Why would Huck hesitate to humble himself to Jim? Why does he? What has he realized about Jim and their relationship?

43 Of Mice and Men Ch 3 Funny, said George. I used to have a hell of a lot of fun with im. Used to play jokes on im cause he was too dumb to take care of imself. But he was too dumb even to know he had a joke played on him. One day I turns to Lennie and says, Jump in. An he jumps. Couldn t swim a stroke. He damn near drowned before we could get him. An he was so damn nice to me for pullin him out. Clean forgot I told him to jump in. Well, I ain t done nothing like that no more.

44 1. Reverence for the dead 2. Common sense morality 3. How to be a decent human being

45 The Bad Boy Huck = Likes to be away from society. Has to see things for himself before he will believe him. The main character who is growing through the story. The Bad Man Pap = Kept Huck from his freedom. Does NOT protect Huck s innocence. Selfish desire for money and control. The Mentor Jim = An outcast as a run away slave. Praises Huck. Teaches Huck moral lessons.

46 Huck starts thinking about his relationship with Jim They reach a turning point on their journey

47

48 Have you ever struggled with an opinion or belief? Maybe you ended up deciding you were right, or maybe you changed your mind. What did that process feel like? What helped you make your decision? If not: What helps you have confidence in your beliefs?

49 because he d be a free man the minute he seen it, but if he missed it he d be in a slave country again and no more show for freedom (91)

50 I tried to make out to myself that I warn t to blame, because I didn t run Jim off from his rightful owner (91) when he got enough he would buy his wife, which was owned on a farm close to where Miss Watson lived; and then they would both work to buy the two children (92) you s de bes fren Jim s ever had; en you s de only fren ole Jim s got now (92) says to myself, hold on; s pose you d a done right and give Jim up, would you felt better than what you do now? No, says I, I d feel bad I d feel just the same way I do now (94) I wouldn t bother no more about it, but after this always do whichever come handiest at the time (95)

51 (*cough* *cough* Great American Paradox) Social law says Jim is property, and Huck did wrong by helping him try to get his freedom. Human law says Jim is a person with a family, and Huck did right by being his friend. What will Huck decide? Stick with the messages he s gotten since birth Or decide for himself based on what he can learn and feel For now wait and see.

52 In a group, discuss the following ideas: How has Jim developed since the beginning of the story? How was he portrayed to start? What have we learned since then? What has Jim taught to Huck? Why was Dat truck dah is trash so important? How does Huck seem to be developing as a character? Ideas? Thought process? Morals? Thinking things through? What social commentary has Twain made so far? Why was the Walter Scott steamboat important?
