1.TIME
2.IMPORTANT PEOPLE
3.BEING THANKFUL
You will choose ONE of the short stories and at home, prepare a "PRE-WRITE" for one of the questions listed below. You will bring this to school tomorrow and use it to help you write your essay question answer.
Questions to choose from:
OPTION ONE: The relationship between unlikely people.
The "concept of time" is important in helping to shape both the relationship Miss Lucy had with Chester and for what she is truly thankful. While we see Chester as being important to Miss Lucy, she is also an important person to Chester? How?
OPTION TWO: Role of Time within relationships.
How could the various forms of time (of day, of year, time of life) play a part in Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones being an important person to Roger? Time even played a part in teaching the reader to be thankful. How?
Option THREE: The important role each friend has within a relationship.
Imagine if the two men had met up after a time of only FIVE years instead of twenty years. Who would have been more "important" at that meeting? during that "imaginary" meeting, if one of the men had tried to "help" the other do you think a sincere thankful spirit would have been shown by the other friend?
BRING the PRE-WRITE....DO NOT bring anything else (rough draft, full essay etc.) with you. Your pre-write must be hand-written in either blue or black ink. You will hand in the pre-write with your completed test.
