TEWWG Glog rules

WHILE ALL OF THESE ELEMENTS MUST BE PRESENT, THE UNDERLINED RULES WILL BE WHAT I AM ASSESSING.  10% OF THE 100 POINTS WILL BE GIVEN IF ALL ELEMENTS ARE PRESENT.

1. The subject of your glog will be ONE of the relationships featured in the novel.
2. Write a description of each character in the relationship of your choice.
3. Create a timeline of the relationship (include chapter numbers).
4. Find pictures (not from the movie) of people you feel fit each of your characters in this relationship.
5. Identify and write the spoken and unspoken rules of this relationship. Also, state what rules SHOULD be placed to create balance of power in the relationship.
6. Use one quote (NOT FROM THE NOVEL) that you find that represents the relationship as a whole.
7. Include one quote from each character (yes, from the novel) that describes or represents his/her tone toward the other character in the relationship.
8. Use at least TEN images (not from the movie) to visually tell the story of this relationship. NOTE: These can be visual metaphors, so they do not have to be pictures of people.  For example, a picture of an open box might represent how Tea Cake allowed her to speak her mind (YOU CANNOT USE AN OPEN BOX).
9. Incorporate at least THREE songs that best represent or relate to the relationship and tell why. (BE SURE TO LIST THE TITLE AND ARTIST)
10. List rules that should be in place in the relationship to balance the power between the people involved in the relationship.
