Short Story to read and write about:  Admission by Danzy Senna
1.  CHARACTERS
Write a brief essay identifying the protagonist and antagonist in the story.  Explain your reasoning.  Consider: does the age and/or race of these characters matter?  Explain why or why not.  Indicate which characters are round and which are flat, and explain why.  Point out any archetypes in the story.  If you have any additional comments youd like to make about characterization in the story do so! (35 points)

2.  STYLE
Describe the style of the writing.  Use adjectives that identify the tone, and support your assertions with examples from the text.  Define irony and provide examples from the text where the author uses it.  Define foreshadowing and provide examples from the text where the author uses it. (25 points)

3.  POINT OF VIEW
Identify the point of view of the story, and explain your answer.  Why do you suppose the author chose this particular point of view?  How would the story be different if there was a different narrative point of view?  (20 points)

BONUS for 10 points:
In our first lesson, we learned that every plot has three movements:  in time, in causality, and in tension.  Chose either causality or tension, and trace that movement in Admission.  You can do this either with a paragraph, or with bullet points that identify moments in the story where the movements occur.
