UNIT 4 ACTIVITY For this assignment, you will be creating a travel brochure for a fictional setting from a book that you have re

ad. Settings help to transport the reader to these locations, and creating a travel brochure takes this idea a step further and allows you to really dig into the different aspects of setting and how the author clearly expresses setting in a book. This activity requires you to collect details from the text, as well as write about setting in a meaningful way. Possibilities for you to choose from of made-up realities might include: Narnia, Harry Potter’s world, The Hunger Games world. You are also welcome to use more realistic settings from fictional novels. Your travel brochure may be created in a word processing program, drawn by hand and photographed to submit, or done on a Power Point type program. It is not necessary that it be a traditional tri-fold brochure, as long as it is creative and includes all of the information required. Please use the included handout as a reference to record relevant information and any important page numbers so that you can use actual textual evidence in your brochure. You will need to either recreate the page or copy and paste it. Before creating your actual brochure, it is advised you take notes that cover the bulleted items below; you may do so on your version of the recording sheet that is included. Refer to the example notes to get some ideas. Brochure Must Include: Brief summary of the setting Where is it geographically? What does it look like? Any indication of the time period? Location: Include a map (you may have to create this map if your setting is a made-up world) Geography: Geographically, where is it? Major cities, well known places Important or historic sites and landmarks Recreation and Activities Include actual activities from the novel Entertainment Climate and weather conditions How to dress, this should relate to the time period or genre as well Available transportation Local languages Pictures May be found online or hand drawn Local Foods Quotes from visitors These should be actual quotes from the book (if possible) that reflect information about the setting based on the characters’ dialogue Important page numbers Things to Include in a Travel Brochure: EXAMPLE NOTES Name: (Your name) Authors Name: Gennifer Choldenko Location/Setting: Alcatraz – Al Capone Does My Shirts Brief summary of the setting, with highlights of important places: Known as “The Rock” – a prison and housing for workers Location, including a map: of San Francisco Bay Geography: Close to San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge Island–surrounded by freezing water and strong currents Major cities, well-known places: Found in 1775 when Spanish explorer Juan Manuel de Ayala traveled through San Francisco Bay Named it “La Isla de los Alcatraces” which means “Island of the Pelicans” Historic Sites and Landmarks: Alcatraz was a prison for dangerous inmates Includes a cell block Recreation and Outdoor Activities: Parks, sports, water Surrounded by water, but too cold to do anything in Prisoners had to earn recreation rights, but families of the prison workers often had recreation activities that they could participate in–bowling, a social club, soda fountain Entertainment Inmates were encouraged to read, and there was a large collection of books for them to choose from Each prisoner had an earphone that they could use to listen to the radio Climate and weather conditions Summarize CA weather Local clothing is prison jumpsuits Available transportation Can only get to prison by boat Local languages Include examples of prison language and lingo Discuss accents from various prison inmates Pictures Photos of the prison grounds Local Foods Prison food Quotes from visitors Important page numbers: 3, 6, 34, 55, 67, 121 \

This is what a travel brochure for a fictional setting should be:

  • original: you need to attract attention.

  • persuasive: you need to convince someone to take a trip to this fictional setting.

  • style of writing related to the fictional setting: you are offering a trip to a fictional setting so you can use a style of writing that relates to the setting. For example, if you are writing about Narnia you can use a formal writing with fantasy related vocabulary.

  • keep it short: brochures are short, they have all the information needed but they need to keep the attention of the reader.

<h3>What is a travel brochure?</h3>

A travel brochure is a piece of paper (or online document) that advertises everything related to a place to visit.

In this case, you have to invite the readers to visit a fictional setting. You can choose any setting as the instructions mention, but you have to do a reasearch about the setting first, so you have all the information to use.

My papa waltz What physical experience does the speaker describe in the poem?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

“My Papa’s Waltz” was written by the American poet Theodore Roethke. It was first published in 1942, then collected in his book The Lost Son and Other Poems in 1948. At first glance, the poem describes a charming family scene: a father and son dance together in the kitchen, roughhousing and romping around. But the speaker supplies a number of hints that things aren’t quite as happy as they seem. The poem subtly reflects on the tension between fathers and sons—tension that in turn may suggest undercurrents of violence.

If u wanted to write an essay analyzing how two characters in a story are similar and different which would be the best way to o
Nezavi [6.7K]

You would need to check how to write the comnparative analysis. In the "lens" (or "keyhole") comparison, in which you weight A less heavily than B, you use A as a lens through which to view B. Just as looking through a pair of glasses changes the way you see an object, using A as a framework for understanding B changes the way you see B. Lens comparisons are useful for illuminating, critiquing, or challenging the stability of a thing that, before the analysis, seemed perfectly understood. Often, lens comparisons take time into account: earlier texts, events, or historical figures may illuminate later ones, and vice versa.  Faced with a daunting list of seemingly unrelated similarities and differences, you may feel confused about how to construct a paper that isn't just a mechanical exercise in which you first state all the features that A and B have in common, and then state all the ways in which A and B are different. Predictably, the thesis of such a paper is usually an assertion that A and B are very similar yet not so similar after all. To write a good compare-and-contrast paper, you must take your raw data—the similarities and differences you've observed—and make them cohere into a meaningful argument.  You may also contact the professionals from Prime Writings and let them do it for you. I am sure you will like the overall experience.
