We read “The Scarlet Ibis” last year in my literature class and all they wanted us to do was write how the read of the ibis’s feathers represents death. I get how this feels like.
In class we had to annotate a short story. The teacher said we need to annotate every 5 words. That assignment was pure hell and it was too long to do in one class period, so we had to do it for homework.
