With an emphasis placed on close reading, students will gain a better understanding of Langston Hughes’ short story, as well as increase their understanding of characterization, tone, and theme. Students will then be able to write a one-paragraph literary response that includes quotations and analysis for each literary element: characterization, tone, and theme.
