Project Information

For your first outside reading project, you will apply many of the skills we studied this six weeks and demonstrate that you have mastered the concepts.

One trait that all of the protagonists face in each novel assigned for this six weeks is that they all experience some sort of stress.  In today's time, someone might say to each character, "you really need a vacation." 

For specific directions refer to the handout.
