Homework for Monday: Adaptations

In class on Monday, we will share some of our script adapations of Kate Chopin's story "Dream of an Hour" (pages 544-545 of Popular Writing in America).  I will not collect your adapations in class; I will look at them the next time I collect your notebooks.  You don't need to adapt the whole story, just the first scene or two to get a sense of the choices you would need to make when repositioning the story for a modern screen audience.  Spend 10-15 minutes this weekend continuing this exercise.

Keep reading and writing those blogs.  We will workshop three of them in class on Wednesday.

Have a safe weekend.
