See formatting directions at the bottom of this page and follow them! Choose ONE of these writing prompts. Respond in an essay of about 500 words. Reply to a classmate with helpful questions or comments that expand the discussion. Write an essay that discusses symbols or symbolism in “The Lottery.” Include in your analysis a discussion of the names of the character. Dr. Lani Roberts of Oregon State University said this about “The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas,” by Ursula K. Le Guin: “I do think the story helps students understand the imbalance of pleasure and justice.” Do you agree that “Omelas” helps us understand pleasure and justice? Explain your position. Guideline for formatting your paper Double-space the text of your paper and use Times New Roman. The font size should be 12 pt. Leave only one space after periods or other punctuation marks (unless otherwise instructed by your instructor). Set the margins of your document to 1 inch on all sides. Indent the first line of paragraphs one half-inch from the left margin. MLA recommends that you use the Tab key as opposed to pushing the Space Bar five times. Create a header that numbers all pages consecutively in the upper right-hand corner, one-half inch from the top and flush with the right margin. Use italics throughout your essay for the titles of longer works. Learn correct punctuation for titles. No endnotes! Formatting the First Page of Your Paper Do not make a title page for your paper. In the upper left-hand corner of the first page, list your name, your instructor's name, the course name, number and section, and the date. Again, be sure to use double-spaced text. Double space again and center the title. Do not underline, italicize, or place your title in quotation marks; write the title in Title Case (standard capitalization), not in all capital letters. Double space between the title and the first line of the text. Create a header in the upper right-hand corner that includes your last name, followed by a space with a page number; number all pages consecutively with Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.), one-half inch from the top and flush with the right margin.
