I think my most memorable assignment was the The Importance of Being Earnest assignment. This is because it was my favorite book (...well, play...) to read in class.The humor in it is great and there's really a lot that you can talk about that relates to the play. It was also incredibly fun to act out in class. Though if a teacher wanted to find a good example of my work it would probably be in my Great Expectations Questions. We did these when we were not too far into the giant project, so I wasn't yet sick of the novel. Because of this, I was able to write more and think more about the way Charles Dickens expressed the characters and the symbolic meanings that were commonly found in it.
Surprisingly, I think I might have worked harder on the Great Expectations project. I don't really know why, but I really did enjoy writing those thought provoking questions :). Still, the project took a lot more time than I wanted it to take, I began to become sick of the book and I'm sure that with this, the quality of my work was also lacking a bit. Ahah! This brings me to a conclusion! I probably didn't work as hard on The Importance of Being Earnest project because we reread every scene in class, meaning I spent just as much (if not then more) time on it as Great Expectations. This relates to my odd pattern of "slacking off when I spend more time on essays and homework assignments", meaning that a teacher would probably find my best grades in the shortest project time periods, even if some of the longer ones were fun to work with.
