Today in class, we read Shelley's physical description of Frankenstein's monster. I want you to choose a person (someone you know, a fictional character, a celebrity...) and in 100-200 words, describe his/her physical features. Pay attention to specific details. You want me as your reader to get an accurate image in my mind of the person you're describing. Don't tell me who your person is.

Frankenstein: on new life
In 100-200 words, write a first-person narrative (a story written from your point of view) of what your day would be like if you had just been born into your current body today. If today were your first day of life, how would you react? What would seeing, hearing, smelling, feeling things be like? Would you know to eat or drink? Would you know what to eat or drink? How would you react to other people? How would they react to you? How would you try to communicate? Think through what you would and wouldn't be able to do as a new person in a 17 or 18-year-old's body. Be creative.
