Life in America - What does it all mean?



Now that you have completed organizing your thoughts about the three texts we have been working with, it is time to begin a “mini-compare/contrast” essay. However, rather than writing an essay, you are going to be composing a blog entry.

Your Task:
Compare and Contrast TWO of the three texts we have been working with by writing three paragraphs about the significance in the different views portrayed about America.

What to include:
The titles of the two texts you will compare and contrast.
1 paragraph about the similarities in the two texts.
1 paragraph about the differences in the two texts.
1 paragraph reflecting on what this (the fact that they are different) suggests about life in America.
