CP - Teachers vs Students in The Chocolate War

In Chapter 6 of The Chocolate War, Brother Leon tells the class that "a certain discipline must be maintained in school. A line must be drawn between teachers and students. We teachers would love to be one of the boys, of course. But that line of separation must remain" (Cormier 41). In a well-developed paragraph, please answer the following question: Are Archie and Brother Leon similar to or different from one another? In your response, which should include 1-2 pieces of textual evidence, you should consider Chapters 4, 5, and/or 6.


Some reminders before you write:

  • Do not use first- or second-person pronouns. (No "I," "we," or "you.")
  • Use present tense verbs when writing about literature.
  • Begin your paragraph with a clear topic sentence that answers the question.
  • Cite all textual evidence with an appropriate MLA citation. There is an example in the question above.
