The Summer Reading Prompt
I hope you enjoyed Howard Fast's April Morning. The prompt asks us to write an essay that discusses what you see as the main conflict in the novel. In class we've discussed an internal conflict Adam has faced by examining how the character changes though the course of the novel. How is he characterized at the beginning of the story? What does he learn from his experiences at Lexington? Students are free to turn in a draft of an essay, or bring to class questions about how to best organize a response.
