WHO/WHAT/WHERE/WHEN/HOW/WHY Categories and Discoveries

 Questions to answer on THE IMMORTALS:
What story-telling technique is used to offer credibility to this narrative?
What kind of immortality is offered in this story?
What elements of this story are no longer science fiction?
Would you pay for this kind of immortality?

Coming up with Student Objectives.

 HW:  (you will work on this while I meet with each student regarding Objectives)

Read selected chapters from Tuck Everlasting and answer the following questions:

1. From what you surmise from the reading what are the reasons The Tucks are petrified about anyone finding out about the "spring"?

2. What are some of the oddities about this family that Winnie attributes to their immortal state?

3. Ponder this (and then write about it): Is immortality a blessing or a curse?
