Skits

Throughout the book there are many great parts that could be acted out ;however , the three that I'm about to discuss would definitely be the best to act out. First, Mr Jaggers case with Molly. this would be a good one cause it's easy to add roles if needed and it was a easy part to understand. Second, is when Orlick tries to murder Pip. This is a good part because there's a lot of suspense in this part and would be fun to act out. Last, Mrs. Joe's funeral. This would be a good part to act out because a lot of the characters are in this part. Also it is interesting when Pip talks to Biddy and Joe. Overall there are many great parts in this book that could be acted out, but these stood out to me the most.

Question

Overall in this book I have had many questions that have been answered. One though that I don't fully understand is how come Pip so ashamed that its the convict that's his benefactor in ch.39 pg. 318. I get that most of it is guilt and he wanted it to be Mrs. Havisham so he could marry Estalla, but still I expected him to be a little more grateful. Either I don't get this part or I'm looking for more than whats there. Message me an answer please.

Quote

A question I have can be found on page 232 when Pip says, ".......I was a hero. Estalla was the inspiration of it, and the heart of it, of course." The question I have from this quote is why is Pip so confident and sure that now he's a gentleman thatt he will be able to sweep Estalla off her feet?

This picture shows someone leaving to go somewhere and doesn't really know what will happen next. This relates to Pip because Pip has these dreams he wants to do. One for instance is to become a gentleman. When the opportunity finally slaps him in the face he agrees that's what he wants. The funny thing is he has no idea what will be on the road ahead. That's how Pip relates to this picture because nether Pip nor the stick figure really know what lies on the road ahead.
