11/18/10- Final Assessment Criteria, Study Guide

Today you will have a quiz on what we have read so far from The Dead Father's Club.

Final Assessment Criteria for Dead Father’s Club


Choose ONE of the following options:

Create a Cartoon: Using either comic life or goanimate.com, create a cartoon based off the book The Dead Father’s Club. Choose a scene or scenes that you think are significant in some way. Provide a 2-3 page analysis to go along with your cartoon. Here are some key questions for your analysis. REMEMBER you are not limited to just the following questions, they are just meant to get you started thinking of your analysis.

• Why did you choose the scene?

• Why did you want the characters to look a certain way?

• What is the scene significant to the book?
• What does the scene tell us about the character?

Write a Modern Shakespeare Story: Choose a Shakespeare story to re-write in a modern way. You do not have to choose Hamlet like Matt Haig did for The Dead Father’s Club. You can choose ANY Shakespeare story to re-write. The short story should be a minimum of 5 pages.

I will continue to post the study guide questions so you are able to review from them. We will not be answering them in groups today. You can answer them on your own time to stay caught up on the study guide for your test.
