Paradise Now - Discussion and Assignment

Last Thursday you finished watching Paradise Now. Over the weekend you responded to some questions about it in your journal - hopefully these pushed you toward figuring out what type of essay / project you will do to complete this unit.

Remember, your 4 choices (you will do each one once) for this semester are:

• Single-Text Analytic Essay
• Personal / Hybrid Essay
• Intertextual Essay
• Creative Project

The unit includes the film, the Ari Shavit article, the TED talk from Zak Ebrahim, our guest speakers, and the Google Slide presentation we made at the start.

• First period slide show
• Second period slide show

We will have two days at the start of next week (Monday and Tuesday) to work in class. Your assignment is due Wednesday,  Nov. 30th.

You will need a copy of our next book, Things Fall Apart, in class on Thursday.

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving break!
