Dance History: V00, V81, V05, and V02
Today we continued to discuss Tutting and what it looks like. Today we also performed these movements. We also spoke about how this relates to The Outsider's because in Hip Hop there is a focus on battles/competition. This is similar to the competition/battles that are in The Outsiders between the Greasers and Socials. Use the quotes below to answer the questions based on your level.

Level 1:
Soda fought for fun, Steve for hatred, Darry for pride, and Two-Bit for conformity. Why do I fight? I thought, and couldn't think of any real good reason. There isn't any real good reason for fighting except self-defense.

Why did Soda fight?
What did Ponyboy think the only good reason for fighting was?


Level 2:
"Hey, Two-Bit," I said, "how come you like to fight?" "Shoot, everybody fights." If everybody jumped in the Arkansas River, ol' Two-Bit would be right on their heels. I had it then. Soda fought for fun, Steve for hatred, Darry for pride, and Two-Bit for conformity. Why do I fight? There isn't any real good reason for fighting except self-defense.

Why did Soda fight?
What did Ponyboy think the only good reason for fighting was?
Do you agree or disagree with Ponyboy when he says "There isn't any real good reason for fighting except self-defense"?



Level 3:
"Hey, Two-Bit," I said, deciding to complete my survey, "how come you like to fight?" He looked at me as if I was off my nut. "Shoot, everybody fights." If everybody jumped in the Arkansas River, ol' Two-Bit would be right on their heels. Soda fought for fun, Steve for hatred, Darry for pride, and Two-Bit for conformity. Why do I fight? I thought, and couldn't think of any real good reason. There isn't any real good reason for fighting except self-defense.
