First, choose 5 concepts that you have clear memories of from puberty or in which you are especially interested: puberty puberty rite menarche spermarche early puberty (“early bloomer”) late puberty (“late bloomer”) thin ideal Anorexia nervosa Bulimia nervosa primary sexual characteristics secondary sexual characteristics growth spurt sexually transmitted infection distorted body image sexual double standard Use your textbook or additional resources to define/describe each term. Your descriptions should be *in your own words* and in enough detail that someone unfamiliar with this material could understand your description. Please do not copy or quote from the textbook Next, for each concept, provide a real-life example. This example can come from personal experience (your own or a friend’s), a news story, an online/social networking site, etc. The example you write about might even be a picture of yourself during adolescence (you can paste it into your document). Make sure to clearly explain why each is an example of the concept and expand on the example to show your understanding. For example, perhaps you’ll mention if this was a typical or atypical example based on what you’ve learned in this class or you might discuss how the experience made you feel.

In “Duet for Bear and Dog,” Sybil Rosen examines the trade-offs that have occurred as humans have created modern, “civilized” societies. Do you believe Rosen thinks that the price of civilization is too high? Compose an essay that defends your stance, referencing specific parts of the play that support your claims. Your thesis needs to make a claim about the piece of literature itself. You should assume that your audience is familiar with the piece, so you will not include a summary. Your goal is to enrich the understanding of your audience in regard to the piece of literature you choose to explore. You do not need to create a Works Cited entry for the poem or story you are exploring. To be clear, outside sources are not required, and the primary support for your thesis should come from the piece of literature itself.
