Week 16 Homer A Feb 24, 2009 15:38:16 GMT -5

In analyzing Week 16 in Homer A (The Boston Tea Party by Mara L. Pratt) with my son today, we are having a hard time dividing up the introduction from the body in this story.

I am torn between the intro being just the first scene or the first 4 scenes. Can anyone help us with this silly question? I can not remember what I did when dd did this story and we can't find her notebook. Thanks.

In my opinion, the introduction is this part:

This Boston tea-party was a very different sort of a party from
the quiet little tea-parties to which your mammas like to go. There
were no invitations sent out for this tea-party, and the people who
attended it behaved in a very queer way, considering they were at a
tea-party.

It tells you the subject of the narrative and also defines what it is not.
