5. Jon the one bastard,
Who knows of no true
mother,
Is worth the honor
STUDENT HAIKU
Ugh that Joffrey B
Like a hangnail in summer:
Just bite its head off.
Flying or falling?
The crow cries, and the boy
thinks
Well, it’s hard to tell
Moonlight shone the scene
while blood and fire burned
bright red.
Winter is coming.
A red eyed monster,
Fur as white as winter.
Quiet as a Ghost.
Robert looked at her:
Cold and alone in her tomb.
Real love can’t come true;

7. Red on a white snow.
An innocent Bran gone;
Heads roll on hill.
EDDARD STARK
Ice lays on Ned’s hand
A head rolls down the red snow
The irony, treason!
Live entertainment!
See the Beheading on Ice:
injustice is served.
Keep the blade still
Strike ever so swift…
Snow cushions the blow.
8. WHAT DO YOU SAY?
Is it right (honorable, moral, fair) that Eddard Stark
cuts off Gared’s head?
9. JON AND CATELYN
Jon the one bastard,
Who knows of no true
mother,
Is worth the honor
Born as a bastard,
A foreseeable mistake:
Jon did not stay small
Dark land full of death,
Godswood or is it hellswood?
Caitlyn is in wonder
Blue wax, icy nights,
Catelyn feels a loss tonight;
The deed has been done.
10. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Is it fair that Eddard Stark brings Jon home to be raised by his
wife, Catelyn?
Some would argue taking responsibility for Jon is honorable.
Some might say he dishonors his wife.
11. ARYA STARK
A water droplet
Becomes a mighty winter
rainstorm-
Arya dances
Courageous she was;
Arya held her needle
With no fear or doubt
Jon gifted a sword
Arya embraced him with love,
And they said goodbye
With crooked stitches
Arya will not find joy.
Needle gives her strength
12. GENDER ROLES?
Is it fair that Arya is forced to do needle
point when she really wants to practice
with the boys?
13. Honorable man
Twisted love with his
sister.
God save the child.
SIBLINGS AND SEX
Two Siblings lay nude:
The lion that eats its tail
Makes a bastard king
Dany a mere girl,
Controlled by her brother’s
greed,
Powerless princess.
Three large Dragon eggs,
Scales glittering like jewels—
Perfect wedding gift.
14. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Jaime and Cersei have a sexual relationship.
Daenerys assumed she would marry her brother.
Is incest wrong?
15. ARGUING: IT IS MORE THAN AN OPINION
When you argue a position, you need to give reasons and
support for your opinion.
Think of reasons as the main points supporting your opinion. Often they
answer the question “Why do you think so?” For example, if you assert among
friends that you value a certain movie highly, one of your friends might ask,
“Why do you like it so much?” And you might answer, “Because it presents
challenging ideas, unusual camera work, and memorable acting.”
Similarly, you might oppose restrictions on students’ use of offensive language
at your college because such restrictions would make students reluctant to
enter into frank debates, because offensive speech is hard to define, and
because restrictions violate the free-speech clause of the First Amendment.
These “because phrases” are your reasons.
Adapted from The St. Martin’s Guide to Writing
16. GENERATING “REASONS” WITH
FREECASH
Often, we know how we feel, but sometimes we don’t know exactly why we feel
the way we do. This makes it hard to come up with reasons to support our
opinions. Sometimes, when we think about an issue, we realize that we have
an opinion that someone else gave us, or an opinion that is popular because it
is traditional.
Generating reasons by investigating an issue helps us understand how or why
we support an opinion. It helps to keep an open mind while doing this exercise.
If nothing else, arguing both sides helps us understand other opinions so we
can argue against them.
FREECASH is a tool that can sometimes help us think through an issue

CONTEST #2
25. HOW DO I KNOW WHAT I THINK UNTIL I SEE WHAT
I SAY?
--E.M. FORSTER
Each text we study will provide material for response writing called a
QHQ (Question-Hypothesis-Question). The QHQ requires students to have
second thoughts, that is, to think again about questions that arise
during their reading and to write about questions that are meaningful to
them.
Begin your QHQ by formulating some question you have about some
aspect of the reading. The first question in the QHQ may be one
sentence or longer, but its function is to frame your QHQ writing. A
student might start with a question like, “Why does Gared run away
instead of returning to the wall? Or, “Why is Catelyn so mean to Jon?” A
student might even write, “Why am I having so much trouble
understanding this story?”
26. After you pose your initial question, focus on a close reading of the text
in search of a hypothesis. This hypothesis section comprises the body of
your text. The student who asked about Gared might refer to passages
about the wall in the text, comparing and contrasting them to other
instances of fear or desertion with which he or she is familiar. The
student who asked about Catelyn might connect passages associated
with her relationship to Eddard. The student who struggled to understand
the text might explore those passages whose meanings were obscure or
difficult to understand, connecting them to other novels and/or cultural
texts. Use textual evidence to demonstrate why you believe you have
found an answer.
After carefully exploring your initial question (250-
400 words), put forward another question, one that
has sprung from your hypothesis. This will be the
final sentence of your QHQ and will provide a base
for further reflection into the text.
27. The QHQ is designed to help you formulate your response to the texts we study
into clearly defined questions and hypotheses that can be used as a basis for
both class discussion and longer papers. The QHQ can be relatively informal
but should demonstrate a thoughtful approach to the material. While your
responses need to be organized and coherent, because you will sharing them
in class, the ideas they present may be preliminary and exploratory.
Remember, a QHQ is not a summary or a report—it is an original, thoughtful
response to what you have read. All QHQs should be posted on the website the
by 5 pm the evening before the class for which they are due. This will give both
me and other students time to ponder your ideas and think about appropriate
responses. Moreover, this sharing of material should provide plenty of fodder
for essays. Even though you have posted your QHQ, you should bring a copy of
it to class in order to share your thoughts and insights and to stimulate class
discussion.
