If you want the grade right away, do the assignment by the due date.

Now that you have become familiar with the main characters and setting of The Outsiders, it’s time to continue on through the next section of the story.  Remember, if you didn’t get your own copy of the book, there are two versions available to use on Google-Classroom along with the corresponding audio version.
