Norman Rockwell: "Runaway"

   Friday 08/17/12
   Give three facts and three claims. Are any of those also opinions (if so, write an "O" beside it)?

   Facts:
   ~ The stool cushions are green (unless you are colorblind, then they are    
     either  blue, yellow, or gray. Either way, they are not red).
   ~ The artist's name can be found in the painting
   ~ Spaghetti is a special today (hooray!)
   
   Claims:
   ~ The time period portrayed is at least ten years before 2012 (Can be 
       supported by certain details, such as the rusted radio on the wall, the fact 
       the man behind the counter is smoking in front of the child, the child's 
       "classic" sack, etc.) *It should be noted that I don't have a very good 
       grasp of the past years
   ~ The man on the left is a police officer (Shocker, but still a claim that can be 
       supported by pointing to different details on his uniform) and he 
       represents authority *O* (you know, because you should always 
         listen to what an officer says) 
   ~ *O* The officer is scolding the child, while the man behind the 
          counter is amused at the situation (This one is mostly judged off of   
        position and facial expressions)
