Creative/Reflective essay about ‘Girl’ by Jamaica Kincaid
ESSAY: CREATIVE / REFLECTION
PART 1: CREATIVE Length: at least 14 lines/ 180 words
Write your own version of Girl, based on real-life instructions / warnings / sayings / advice that you hear from a parent or authority figure. Use specific details and descriptions; include instructions about behavior related to family, home, chores, food, health and hygiene, school, culture, beliefs, religion, relationships and anything else you may hear.
FORMAT: This should not be in complete sentence/grammatical paragraph form. Do not start with my mother says or give commentary on the advice. Look at it as stream of consciousness that simulates parents advice and rules. It may include unspoken messages, ideas or values implied from your parents behavior. It may also include 1-2 lines of your reply to a parent; as in Girl, use italics to show a different person is speaking.
Give it your own title. Kinkaids piece could have been titled Caribbean Girl or Girl who should not become a slut. How would you summarize your version?
PART 2: REFLECTION
Write at least 3 paragraphs / 300 words of reflection, commenting on the instructions and explaining what they tell you about family relationships. Connect your own version of Girl to Kincaids, using comparison and contrast. Use at least 3 quotes from the story Girl and at least 1 quote from an online article about the story Girl. Name and use any one mode of literary theory/criticism in your reflection.
Include a WORKS CITED list with bibliographical data for the story Girl and for the online article about the story Girl. Use MLA format.
