Quest 3: Making Connections
**Headphones will be needed for this quest**
The third quest brings the Dust Bowl and Out of the Dust together to make connections between the historical Dust Bowl and the literary one we read about. In what ways was the author, Karen Hesse, able to capture this historical event in this novel to show readers the devastating circumstances? Through Billie Jo, the reader is able to picture this devastation in their mind. However, through this YouTube video, one is able to actually see what took place. Before watching this short video, read through the questions for Quest 3 on your worksheet. While watching this video, be thinking about situations you read about in Out of the Dust. |
