A guide to “How Much Land Does a Man Need” With a partner, you will construct a guide to this story. It will resemble a tri-folded travel brochure. Your teacher will model how to fold your construction paper. The following slide will explain what is to be the contents of each panel.
Brochure Description • Panel 1 – Cover. Design a colorful cover that reflects a theme or uses symbols from the story. • Panel 2 – Map the story on Freytag’s Pyramid. Refer to your notes on the parts of the diagram. Note that you might need to turn the diagram sideways. • Panel 3 – Write mock critiques of the story. They should discuss not only a like/dislike of the story, but also why this story should/should not be taught in high schools. • Panel 4 – Write ‘quiz questions’ over the story. You need at least 7. Answers do not need to be included. • Panel 5 – Character Info. Make a cast of characters that includes a description of each person. You should address their role, purpose, personality, and what each character learns. • Panel 6 – List the name of your group members and who was responsible for each section. You will be graded based on these sections. Note – if a person designs the cover, he/she MUST complete another panel as well.
Tips for success! • Follow your teacher’s model. The panels need to be in the correct location. • To divide work efficiently, do NOT write on the construction paper. Write on unlined white or colored paper, cut out content, then paste onto brochure. • Communicate! Ask plenty of questions in order to understand exactly what is expected of you. We’re looking for creativity, yes, but also a profound understanding of the short story. • Mediocre work will receive mediocre grades!!!
