Week of March 18th-- Focus on Connections

This week your entry will focus on CONNECTIONS.

You may make connections between YOURSELF and A CHARACTER.
 
Sometimes novels are reflections of the world in which we live. You may make connections between an IDEA OR THEME explored in your novel and the same IDEA OR THEME AS IT WORKS IN THE WORLD WE LIVE.

You may make connections between YOUR NOVEL and ANOTHER NOVEL YOU HAVE READ either for class or on your own. Remember, connections can also be things that contrast, or a very different, between novels. So they may have some element that is the same, but also something that is very very different that stands out to you.

Your entry will:

• Give background on whatever it is you will be connecting to (character, idea, theme, etc)
• Lead into your connection and why you chose this connection to write about
• Clearly explain the connection you have chosen-- what is it, how does it work, why is it important.
