Stories about families are often some of the most interesting, especially when told in a compelling manner. For this assignment you will "deconstruct" the storytelling structure of one of the family texts we read in class. Specifically, you will examine the manner in which the text tells its story. For example, how does the text hook in a reader, build tension, and attempt to draw commonalities? Is it formal, casual, or conversational in tone—and what is its overall effect on the text? Keep in mind, this essay should emphasize structure over content, so you're analysis should be less about what the text is about and more about the way in which information is presented.
Requirements:
- MLA format
- 2-page minimum

I am confused. What is the prompt for the narrative analysis?
we are suppose to choose one article form the family section and analyze how the author presents the article, style - formal, casual, etc. and context and how it helps us understand the story.
