“Tom Sawyer Quiz, Chapter 10.”

Make a five panel storyboard. The first four panels should show what happens in the last two big paragraphs of chapter 10 (p75-76), the fifth panel should illustrate the last line of the chapter. Don’t worry about art quality too much (especially the first four panels); focus on showing what happened. You may use thought/talk balloons to help show what happened. The more details the better!

“After breakfast his aunt took him aside…” “…the latter’s retreat through the back gate was unnecessary.” “…and took his flogging…” “…brass andiron knob.” “This final feather broke the camel’s back.”
