Final Portion of Short Story Project

Friday, March 23, 2018

We'll present on Monday during class.  Bring all props and necessary materials for an excellent presentation.

Final required elements, which you must work on during today's class:

• Go to quizlet.com and create a new study set for your vocabulary words.
  • ​If you don't have an account, make one.
    
  • Title your new study set E9_SSP_StoryTitle_LastNames, but with your story title and your last names, as usual.
    
  • When you are ready, find the "Share" button (it looks like an arrow toward the top half of the screen) and copy the link it gives you.  It might look something like this when you get it: https://quizlet.com/_3m01po
  • Copy that link into your master document you've been working on for these past two weeks.
• Make a master handout for your short story.  This will be distributed to the class at the time of your presentation Monday.  Include:
  • Title and author, in correct form (e.g., "The Most Dangerous Game", by Richard Connell).
  • Your team members' names
  • Year written/published
  • List of characters, with BRIEF description (e.g., "Lowther: female, English teacher, intense but caring"
  • Basic summary of the short story
  • Your interpretation of theme(s) with good explanation--what can we learn about humanity from this story (positive or negative)?
  • Master vocab list, WITH THE QUIZLET LINK included
  • Put this at the END of your master document, but on a new page, and I'll print it out for you at 11:00 on Monday morning.
• STAY FOCUSED AND DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!  This is doable without having extra homework, if you all work well in your teams.
