Sophomore English True Grit

WRITE a compare and contrast paper examining a specific scene from the book and the two movies (1969 and 2010).  Use the graphic organizer provided to you plan your writing (this is not an option, but will be graded on completeness).
You MUST use specific quotes/language from the book, as well as discuss images and language choices from the movie.  I foresee some people complaining that they do not have enough material to write three pages-- I don't buy it!  Make sure you are backing your arguments appropriately.

Due Dates
Essential Questions: 4/4 (beginning)
Thesis Statement: 4/5 (end of class)
Competed graphic organizer: 4/10 (end)
First Complete Draft: 4/13 (end)
Final Draft: 4/18 (end)

Three pages, double spaced, times new roman, 1 inch margins.... the usual.
