Written Response: The
purpose of this assignment is once the students have finished the book When We Wake, they will write a literary
analysis about what they liked about the book, what they didn’t like, and what
their predictions are for what will happen next in the story. Students will be
expected to use text evidence including direct quotes and page numbers to
support their statements. As a teacher, I would be looking for feedback on the
book as to if I would have students read it again, and I would also be looking at the creativity in their predictions.
