Assignments
and
Projects:
Reading
and
Writing
Activities
Throughout
our
reading
of
A
Separate
Peace
we
will
be
frequently
writing
in
our
writers’
notebooks
and
taking
notes
on
the
novel
as
we
progress.
Different
prompts
and
questions
will
help
us
to
more
fully
discuss
the
chapters
and
it
will
help
us
critically
think
about
the
reading
of
this
novel.
You
will
mostly
be
reading
A
Separate
Peace
at
home;
therefore,
it
is
essential
that
you
keep
up
with
the
reading,
as
it
will
aid
in
your
participation
in
class
and
your
success
on
the
writing
activities.
POV
Letter
One
of
our
during‐reading
writing
activities
will
take
a
more
formal
form
as
a
letter
that
explores
the
text
from
a
different
point
of
view.
This
creative
writing
assignment
will
allow
you
to
adopt
the
persona
of
a
character
from
the
book
to
detail
some
of
the
events
from
their
perspective.
More
particulars
about
this
letter‐
graded
assignment
will
follow.
Literary
Analysis
As
a
concluding
assessment
for
the
unit,
each
of
you
will
work
on
a
full‐process
literary
analysis
on
a
topic
of
your
choice.
We
practiced
analysis
as
we
read
Antigone,
and
will
continue
to
practice
with
our
written
activities
during
our
reading
of
A
Separate
Peace.
This
final
paper
is
a
chance
for
you
to
employ
your
newly‐honed
analysis
skills
to
craft
an
essay
on
a
topic
of
your
choosing.
