Homework due TUESDAY 9/23

In the Discussion and Composition Questions on page 29 of your packet, answer the 1st question:

At the end of the story, Ellen states that she has made a man out of her husband, but Matt Tobin says, “God Almighty did that for him before you were born.” Discuss what you think Ellen and Matt mean. Do you agree with Ellen or with Matt? Explain what you think it takes “to make a man.”

Start out by making a list of notes for Ellen and for Matt and list out points that you feel support each person’s point of view. Turn in your notes, stapled to your essay.

The main criteria that you will be graded on here:

-a solid introduction and conclusion

-clear ideas that are supported with examples

Make sure that your essay is typed, double-spaced, 12 point font with your name, date and assignment in the upper right hand of the paper.
