1) Include what the characters have done over the past 10 years and any memories you might want to suppress or explore.

2) You must show through action or dialogue how each survivor is still suffering from some amount of PTSD from their experiences on the island.

3) If certain characters who survived the traumatic experience in Lord of the Flies are NOT present at the reunion, you must explain their absence through dialogue between other characters.

Remember: Internal thoughts, if you choose to include them, must be italicized.

REQUIREMENTS: *1-2 pages in length *Both partners must put in an equal amount of work! Put both partners’ names in the heading. *Characters cannot act nor speak “out of character.” For example, if Roger is a totally normal person, you’d better explain what he’s been up to throughout the past 10 years to reform such a sadistic adolescent into a fully functional adult! *If you choose the short story option, you must have at least 15 *In some way (the school, dialogue, inner dialogue, etc.), you must make mention of Piggy and Simon. (You may also, but do not have to, refer to the conch, Piggy’s broken glasses, etc.) *The tone need not be serious throughout.
