English III--Read and Annotate the Handout, "Growing Up Asian in America." Also create questions (must be question types I have specified in a post) and answers with textual support. Assignment is due April 16, 2024. You already have the handout.

 


Read and annotate the text (I distributed the handout); complete the assignment of a handwritten MLA-style document for important reading questions (see Canvas and also the post on question types on this website). You must create the answers and provide textual support. Also, include a vocabulary section--at least five words defined, not those defined by the book editor. You must create questions and answers modeled after those specific question types in Canvas, Exercise Two (not random questions). You should also have an annotated paper document of the story. (Take pictures of your documents and upload them onto your laptop computer.)

For the entirety of the semester, keep an electronic version of all documents on your laptop desktop. Keep printed-out versions of all documents in your binder. The assignment(s) could be collected any time during the semester, not just on the due date.

Hurston chose not to align herself with the political ideologies of ot...
