Write a brief essay on the social, cultural and economic honesty of the book or movie. Use the following instructions to guide your writing.

  • Describe the strengths and weaknesses of the main character portrayed in the book / movie.

  • Provide a social context for the story and compare it with your own belief about schools or families.


  • Were there any cultural issues addressed? If so, what were the pros and cons?

Example: In My Left Foot, the era and culture had a great bearing on how the Brown family was expected to cope with a youngster with cerebral palsy. This varies greatly from the reception of Steven Hawkings, born nearly a century later. These represent both cultural and social issues.

  • Explore the role of parents and extended family members, if applicable.


  • Did the portrayal discuss the economic realities of the situation? If not, what do you think the ramifications might be?

Example: In the Helen Keller story, the family is well to do and can afford to hire someone to care for Helen. How would the story be different if the family had a marginal income?
