complete the following two assignments:
1. Read The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. (You do not need to purchase this
book. In September, you will download the book to your school-issued iPad so that we can
refer to it while discussing.) After reading this book, please answer the following 2
questions. This assignment, composed in your best written English, must be either
computer-generated or written neatly in blue or black ink on loose leaf paper.
a. How do the author and narrator depict Santiago? What three adjectives best
describe Santiago? In writing this short character sketch (approximately 8 -12
sentences), include specific details from the plot to support your assertions.
b. Write about 2 significant or powerful quotations. Begin by copying each quotation
and identifying its speaker (which may be the narrator.) Then explain why you feel
each excerpt is important. Each explanation should be approximately 8 – 12
sentences.
2. Read To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. (You do not need to purchase this book. In
September, you will download the book to your school-issued iPad so that we can refer to
it while discussing.) After reading this book, please write an essay of approximately 250
words in which you identify and discuss one major theme. Keep in mind that theme is the
insight into life which an author offers through a work of literature. This assignment,
composed in your best written English, must be either computer-generated or written
neatly in blue or black ink on loose leaf paper.
Both written assignments will be collected on the first day of classes. Besides receiving a grade
for these assignments, you will have at least two more assessments on these literary works
(following class discussion.)
Questions:
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Miss Willis (English Department Chair)
via email: [email protected]. Enjoy the summer! All of us are looking forward to
welcoming you to Kennedy Catholic High School soon! The writing assignments will be collected
on the first full day of class in September. Besides receiving a grade for these assignments, you
will have a few more assessments on these literary works once we discuss them in class.
