Go read TWO (at least) stories from Saki, Chekhov, or Dahl, then create a PPT Cutout of the two, comparing these areas:
- Characters
- Setting
- Conflict
Slides one through six of your Google Docs Presentation should be the title (lift-up) slides. Then 7-12 are the corresponding informational slides (very small print is okay, as long as it's still legible).
Can I recommend some stories?
Dahl's Mrs. Bixby and the Colonel's Coat is very fun. So is his Lamb to the Slaughter (see the link above). I rarely read a Dahl story that doesn't amuse me at least a little.
Chekhov has short and long stories, but most of his best ones are too long to read unless you go home to read them on your own time. Chekhov is the father of modern short stories, but they're not for little kids.
Saki has some real gems. I can't recommend one over the others, but I hope you have a chance to read a couple of them.
