Four paragraph assignment

Today you will receive your Constitution test and essay on The Great Gatsby.  Read the feedback carefully - it is being given to you today with the express purpose of having you use the feedback to improve your future work, especially the assginment due tomorrow.

What is that assignment?

You've already written the first three paragraphs:
1- Emerson
2- Thoreau
3- Into the Wild

Today, we are adding the fourth:

Paragraph Four:

            What do you think?  Which one, Emerson or Thoreau, more closely aligns with your personal beliefs?  To what extent do you believe in what Emerson or Thoreau has to say?  Where are you still uncertain?

            You’ll need to select one or the other, then, using a specific personal example, explain both why you selected the one you did.  You do not need to use additional quotations from Emerson and Thoreau here – howeve, you should make explicit connections back to the ones you used in paragraphs one and two.  Furthermore, do make sure you tell a bit of your own story, naming a specific time when your experiences did / didn’t align with Emerson / Thoreau’s, before explaining why. Think of this as similar to Thoreau using his time in the woods as a was to express to us why he believes what he does believe.  Feel free to use what you wrote in the field trip packet as part of your answer.
