Read the novel and play noting similarities and differences between them so that you can write the comparison-contrast essay due the first day of school. (Both are widely acclaimed and easily available at bookstores and public libraries).
This essay is similar to your essay comparing Medea and Gal Young ‘Un for Mrs. Hansen if you were in English II Honors.
For this essay, you will turn in evidence of prewriting and planning, an edited rough draft and a typed final copy.
Your essay must have some discussion involving issues dealing with race. Other ideas for this comparison could be genre, setting, language, plot, characterization, and themes.
You will also be tested on both pieces when you return to school.
