Short Answer
What factors, past and present, contribute to identity? How might someone’s experiences change their identity in significant ways?
Teaching Suggestion: This Short Answer prompt introduces one of the text’s key themes: The Possibility of Change and Growth. Chase Ambrose, the protagonist, falls from the roof of his house and develops amnesia. His memory loss erases his identity and creates tensions within the school and his family. Before students begin, consider discussing the connection between memory and identity. To help students generate ideas, you might also discuss how significant life events contribute to change.
