Choose a historical event and explain how it inspired or affected one of the literary works you read in Unit 2. Prepare a slideshow presentation that includes a thesis statement and key ideas that support your thesis. At least one slide should
include passages from the literary work that support your thesis. A works-cited list on the final slide should document
your research, using MLA guidelines for citations. Click here to view the MLA Style Guide.
Develop and record an audio script to accompany your slideshow. Your script should have a concluding statement that
restates your thesis and sums up the main points in your slideshow.
Your slideshow and script will be part of a collaborative group project, if you are able to collaborate. Use the rubric to
evaluate your work and work contributed by other members of your group.
