WELCOME!
Please take some time to post two responses to Of Mice and Men before you return to class on January 4. Each post should be at least 100 words long and should include direct references to the text you are discussing. Even if you are responding to a quote in the prompt, you should bolster your own response with other references. Those references should include internal citations to note where you are in the book (p. #). When you make a post, please read all other posts for that question so that you are participating in a conversation. Please do not repeat what other students have already said. There are many questions from which to choose, so you should be able to discuss your ideas somewhere without being redundant. Remember to make some post-it notations about symbols and archetypes, along with any other ideas you would like to discuss when we get back to class.
Feel free to respond to as many prompts as you would like. If you respond to more than two, please asterisk the responses that are NOT for evaluation. Be sure your name appears on each comment, so I can see who you are. I think you will need to log in to your Google account as you work. If you can, please post with your school Google identity. If you post as "Anonymous" without your name, you will not be able to receive credit for your work, so be sure your name appears within the comment if you do that.
When Curley's wife came into Crook's room, it was obvious that she was unwanted but she stayed there anyway. When she first arrived to his room she was focused on finding Curley but she slowly got more comfortable with being around Lennie and Crook. While Candy was trying to get her out of the room, she was asking about Lennie's hand and how Curley got hurt. Lennie said that "'he got his han' stuck in a machine'...Curley's wife laughed. 'OK Machine. I'll talk to you later. I like machines'''(80). This is showing that she is a lot smarter then she makes herself out to be. She was capable of putting those two incidents together and realize what happened without them telling her. This revealed that she has good deductive reasoning skills.
