Bloom's taxonomy

1.Knowledge - What happened when Jack and Bigger left the pool room?
-When they left the pool room they went to the movie theatre.

2.Comprehension - Who was the key character in the plan Bigger made after killing Mary?
-The key character in Bigger's plan was Jan. Bigger was planning to frame Jan for Mary's murder.

3. application-What question would you ask bigger if you had the chance to meet her?
-Was the North what you expected to be when you moved from down south?

4. analysis-what were some of the motives behind killing Mary?
-His motives behind killing Mary was that he was scared, confused, he felt hate, and his mind was out of place. In other words he killed her without the intentions of killing her.

5. synthesis-what would have happened if Mary's dad walked in instead of Mary's mom?

-if Mary's dad would of walked in the room and saw bigger on Mary's bed a series of thing might have happened. first of all, Mary's dad would of interrogated bigger about what he was doing in his house. The second thing that could of happened is that Mary's dad could of mistaken Bigger for another African American and attacked him. Finally, Bigger would have gotten so scared that he would of shot Mary's dad.

Mary's dad wouldn't of wanted to call the cops on Bigger because he wouldn't want that to be in the newspaper so instead he would of just interrogated him. such questions would include: "why are you here?, were you planning to kill Mary?, should I fire you before you start working?"

What if he mistaken bigger for another African American and attacked him not knowing that it was bigger.Then In this situation bigger would of tried to talk some sense into Mr. Dalton but, on the other hand he might of retaliated.

with the last scenario bigger would of pulled out his gun and shot Mr. Dalton because of the trembling fear that would of ran down his body. At this point he would lost his mind and killed Mary just because she was a witness to her father's murder.

In conclusion, the series of events that could of took place if her father had walked in on him could of reshaped the rest of the story line and who knows what the rest of the book would of sounded like.

6.Evaluation-How would you have dealt with getting drunken Mary in the house?

-Bigger did not have an easy task, getting drunken Mary into her house. Not only was it his first day on the job, but she was counting on him to cover the fact that she had not been at a school lecture, as she had said to her father, but instead had gone out drinking with communists instead. Although he ended up killing her by accident, the situation didn’t look good from the start. If I had been in his position I would have done it
in the quickest way possible

I would have just brought her into the house, and laid her down on the first piece of furniture I found, and then left. This way, I wouldn’t have to walk up any stairs, which would make noise and possibly wake someone up. If the family questioned me, which they might not, for the sake of not being awkward, or for fear of offending me, I would just tell them I dropped her off where she wanted and then picked her up and she was drunk so I took her home.

This seems like it would be the least risky way to have dealt with Mary. Bigger’s biggest mistake was trying to seduce her.
