Thursday

 Today you should be working on your personal response essay. Tomorrow you should start to prepare your presentation.

Book Review/ Personal Response:  Give a detailed summary of the book.  What did you like?  What did you not like?  Would you recommend this book to a friend?  Why or why not?
 
THE LITERARY ANALYSIS: Choose one literary element of the book and develop a thesis around it.  Back up your thesis statements with proof from the text.  This paper should be at least 3 pages.
 
THE CONNECTION: 1-2 pages connecting the novel to a short story read in class.  You may focus on theme, characterization (think dynamic), or figurative language.
 
THE PRESENTATION:  3 minutes—this should be an overview of your project and what you learned.  It should include a visual aid.
