Application
Q:
 If you have the chance, what question would you ask Mary about Bigger?

Analysis

Q: What do you think would have happened if Bigger did not kill Mary?

A: If Bigger did not kill Mary, things would be a lot better for him. The book would probably become a bit boring, but with the way Bigger acted, something else could have led to him getting in trouble.

Synthesis
Q: Can you see a possible solution to Bigger scaring his sister with the rat?
A: There could have been more possible solutions for Bigger when he killed the rat. He could have just taken the rat to the trash like his mother asked him. Being the disobedient son instead of listening to his mother he scared his sister.

Evaluation

Q: How would you feel if you were in Bigger’ position, a young poor black boy killing a young rich white women?
A: If I were in Bigger's position, a young poor black boy having just killed young rich white women, I would have panicked and would most likely have turned myself into the police.
