Read the “back of the book” written below and begin thinking about some major themes.According to Ponyboy, there are two kinds of people in the world: greasers and socs.

A greaser, on the other hand, always lives on the outside and needs to watch his back. Ponyboy is a greaser, and he's always been proud of it, even willing to rumble against a gang of socs for the sake of his fellow greasers--until one terrible night when everything changes.

Read the “back of the book” written below and begin thinking about some definitions.According to Ponyboy, there are two kinds of people in the world: greasers and socs. A soc (short for "social") has money, can get away with just about anything, and has an attitude longer than a limousine. A greaser, on the other hand, always lives on the outside and needs to watch his back. Ponyboy is a greaser, and he's always been proud of it, even willing to rumble against a gang of socs for the sake of his fellow greasers--until one terrible night when everything changes. How would you define a soc? (pronounced So-sh) How would you define a greaser?Which group would you feel more comfortable with? Explain your answer. Can you think of another group versus group problem that you have studied? What was it about? How were the groups different? Did their differences cause any change?

How are poor people treated in our community? Is it fair? Do you feel like our community supports you or is out to get you, why?Conflict #3: Ponyboy feels as though his brother hates him. What is it like being in a conflict with your family? How do you resolve conflicts in your family?Conflict #4: The conflict between the Greasers and the Socs seems like a conflict between two gangs.
