English III-Quarter 2 Question 1 Due 11/ 13!
Main characters often have traits (or flaws) that make them similar to characters in other books. Compare the main character(s) of your book to the character(s) of another book you have read, or of a story we have read in class. In what ways are the characters similar to each other, and in what ways are they different? If these characters were to meet, what could they learn from each other?

English IV- Quarter 2 Question 1 due 11/ 12!
As we have been reading Oedipus Rex, we have discussed dramatic and verbal irony several times. In your book have there been any examples of irony? Describe the situation in detail (what is happening in the situation, what makes it ironic, etc.) and provide specific text evidence from the book to support your answer.
If there is no irony whatsoever in your book, please give me an overview of what's going on in your plot. Tell me how you feel about the plot of your book. What part of the plot are you in (exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution)? What plot events have come as a surprise to you? What is your opinion on the development of any of the elements of plot (does your author do a good job of developing the plot? How is the pacing?)? Are the plot events believable? Which ones? How so? If they are not believable, why aren't they, and what would you do to change them? Use specific examples from your text!
