Discussion/Analysis Prompt

Consider Darius and Kamran’s Code of Honor. What was the Code that they lived by? How does their Code compare to your personal Code of Honor?

Teaching Suggestion: This prompt links directly to the personal connection prompt and can be done as an in-class discussion or a take-home writing prompt. Students should be able to accurately identify Darius and Kamran’s code of honor (i.e., “Be the strongest of the strong. Be the bravest of the brave. Help the helpless. Always tell the truth. Be loyal. Never give up. Kill all the monsters.”) from the novel before making the comparison to their answers.
