Fever 1793
by Laurie Halse Anderson
Culminating Writing Task:
Throughout the unit, you have read historical texts to study the past. How does Laurie Halse Anderson use a historical event to develop a theme about human nature? Write an essay that examines how events in Fever 1793 affect the characters and develop a theme. Support your response with evidence from the novel, as well as one or more addional unit texts. Be sure to idenfy key events within the novel; idenfy characters’ behaviors in response to key events; analyze how the characters’ reacons to key events develop a theme about human nature; compare the events in the novel to historical events described in supplemental texts; and use transions to show the connection to ideas.
