The Following Should Be Connected and Should Flow Together

Gabriele Rico’s One Pager

The following should be connected and should flow together (Look at the rubric for details about each individual part of the one-pager.):

v A visual (drawing or pictures from other sources that depict what you see when you read the piece of literature).

v 1 interpretive statement (not just a fact from the story, but a statement which states how you perceived and interpreted the story)

v 2 to 4 quotes that stand out as meaningful to the main idea or purpose of the story or poem

v 3 to 6 words or phrases that strike you as important to the author’s intent, tone, or purpose of the story or poem OR that support the interpretive statement you made
