When you go to this link, it will take you to another WebQuest, a very short one

You do not have to do this webquest, just come up with a list of things that were different between this webquest and that webquest and if there is anything different, note it exceptionally.

Write a reflection of what you thought of this assignment and mention the things that you would have liked to have seen be done

differently.

Lastly, write the top two most important features of Freytag’s Pyramid that will help you in close readings.
