Each of you will be doing a presentation in groups of 2 or 3. Here are some general guidelines. You should be sure to consult with one another about this project! I'm also happy to have you come speak with me beforehand.
You should choose a passage (a couple of paragraphs) from the novel, or you may choose a theme (example: religion vs. science) or a repeated image (example: a thread unspooling). Give a 5-minute presentation on how your passage is significant, or how the author uses the theme/imagery. Then you should come up with a substantial question or two to pose to the group. This should be a discussion question--one that will spark conversation--and not just a question that could be answered simply.
I will give you a fair amount of leeway in how you structure the presentation, as long as you engage critically and substantially with the material.
