You use "a" before a consonant, "an" before a vowel, but it is used before "hour" or "honest" because the Hs are silent. We use "the" to help us talk about things or events.
Exs:
A "C"lock
An "A"pple
The "School"
I hope this helped.

The mind map method is made of five parts: a box, arrows, circles, stars, and free-floaters. The box is the place where you write the main topic. The arrows connect the box with other parts of the mind map and show the relationship between ideas. The circles are where you write subordinate ideas of the main idea. The stars serve the same function as circles except they are starred because the information contained within them is especially important. Free-floaters are circles or stars that are not connected to the main idea. They are important ideas that seem to be off-topic. For me, I feel that I could use the mind map method as a way to organize each chapter of Gulliver’s Travels.
