Working alone, you will combine our studies of the literary terms, thinking maps and the short story “The Most Dangerous Game.” You will be producing a packet, a total of 9 pages (including a Cover Page and Table of Contents) where you will demonstrate your understanding of the terms by applying them to the story.

The format requirements are as follows:
