Character T-Shirt Project: Analyzing Characters in 1984

In Ms. Manning's English 12 class, students will create a T-shirt to explore character analysis elements from George Orwell's "1984". This project requires a deep understanding of at least one character, including Winston, Julia, or O'Brien, showcasing their characteristics visually. Additionally, students will define literary terms related to characterization, presenting their findings in a Word document. The T-shirt will serve as a creative advertisement for the book, worn on the due date, with a checklist to ensure all elements are properly included.
