) Title and authors of primary (stories we have read in class) texts
Your thesis (Which depends on the question you write about from above)
Never end a paragraph with a quote.
Cite outside sources within in your text; if it appears on your works cited page it has to be used in the paper (direct quotes or paraphrasing).
Always keep in mind: is this quote proving and supporting my thesis? If not, do not use it!
WITHOUT A WORKS CITED PAGE OR OUTSIDE SOURCES THE
PAPER WILL FAIL
Each of the characters in the Younger family has a particular individual dream. One wants to move to a bigger home, one wants to attend medical school, one wants to rise above his conditions though does not necessarily have a plan to do so. Write an essay in which you compare and contrast the functions of dreams in A Raisin in the Sun. Consider whether there was a way to make each individual dream compatible with others dreams. If so, explain why the characters did not identify this alternative. Use examples from the texts along with 2 outside sources to support your thesis.
