The Things They Carried "Sweetheart Of the Song Tra bong" Open Book Analysis
I have created six higher-order analysis questions for O'Brien's story "Sweetheart of the Song Tra Bong". Since I require students to provide quoted textual evidence to support their responses, I have found success making this an "Open-Book" assessment on the reading, but these questions can also be used as class discussion starters, to divide students into groups for focus-analysis in class following the reading, or as preparation for the AP Literature exam.
