I re-uploaded the same assignment from Monday. Attached are video instructions for you to watch. Hopefully, they can guide you. I also filled out sections of the graphic organizer to support you. The examples should guide you.

Read Act 1 scenes 2 and 3. Write down notes and write two summaries to receive a grade.

Due today: Your thesis and introductory paragraph.

Reminders:
You can work with partners; however, you need to label the sections you and your partner worked on and you must paraphrase your responses so that they are not identical.
The first 3 are sections are already filled in for you and will serve as examples that you can reference in case you are confused about what to do.
You must fill in every section of the document. Read all the directions carefully. 
Directions:
You will be reading a play titled, “A Streetcar Named Desire” by Tennessee Williams. The film adaptation of the play is linked to the digital copy of the assignment so that you can reference it for extra support. For this assignment, you will look at how Williams develops her characters and will analyze their characterization throughout different scenes to determine if they stay the same or change throughout. 
Think about all three characters (Blanche, Stella, and Stanley) that you will be introduced to in the play. Analyze their characterization. Write down any important details that inform you about each character’s personality traits. Highlight any evidence that informs you about the character and their values, beliefs, appearance, attitude, actions, comments, behavior, and/or personality.  
Requirements:

You must write a minimum of 3 details per section about the character(s) they are analyzing. They can mix and match.
Responses must be detailed and clear.
You must highlight the evidence that supports their observation of the character(s).

Read the text, write gist statements, and answer the green highlighted questions to be able to answer the exit ticket. Read the criteria for success to make sure you score a 4. This standard assesses your ability to analyze evidence in depth within a literary text. Your focus is on analyzing evidence in detail. The vaguer you are, the lower the grade. 

If you finish early, finish reading the text by scrolling down. You will have the choice of writing about this story or other ones for a future essay.
