Introduction

=Introduction=  Picture this: You are a child growing up during the time of the Revolutionary War. Times are hard. People are divided. It's hard to know whose side you're on at times. This is the way things are for Tim Meeker and his family during the Revolutionary War. What would you do if you were there?

You will read, discuss, and study the Collier brother's novel My Brother Sam is Dead. In the novel you will focus on understanding Elements of Plot (Plot line, Characterization, Setting, Theme, and Point of View). You will continue to use the American Revolution time period to focus your understanding of the novel and to aide you in understanding the plot development.

Good luck!!!! This will be an interesting journey!!!
