Directions: In this assessment, you are going to draft a monologue from the point of view of the character you chose from Esperanza Rising. The monologue should clearly show the response of your character to the situation where his or her human rights were challenged.

REMEMBER: A well-written, text-based narrative

—Has a beginning that establishes the situation and introduces the narrator
—Has a middle that describes the central problem or conflict and explains what the narrator thinks, feels, and does in response to the problem
—Has an ending that provides a sense of closure
—Follows rules of writing (spelling, punctuation, and grammar)

Now, begin work on your monologue. Manage your time carefully so that you can:
1. Reread your group’s excerpt from Esperanza Rising to familiarize yourself with the situation.
2. Review your Monologue Planning Graphic Organizer: Esperanza Rising.
3. Draft your monologue.
4.Use the Narrative Writing Checklist to revise and edit your narrative to be sure it meets all the criteria.
