Stave 3
What does Scrooge see at the Cratchits' house and how does it affect him? As before, give textual evidence and page numbers.
Stave 2
A character who changes through the course of a novel is called "dynamic." Scrooge is one such character. Examine the young Scrooge we meet in Stave 2 and describe how his personality is different from that of the Scrooge from Stave 1. Why do you think he changed so much between his youth and old age? Give textual evidence to support your answer, including page numbers.

Stave 1

Three of the main characters in Stave One are Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and Fred. Each can be thought of as representing the attitude of a large group of people. Choose one and discuss the attitude/group he symbolizes. Use a quote from the text and include the page number in parentheses.
