If you read "The Bet" by Anton Chekhov this week, here's a project that will replace at least some of the message board questions once school begins.
Step One: Read the story. You've already done this at least once. Do it again at least once more.
Step Two: Watch this episode of TV's Twilight Zone. As you watch, note the similarities and differences between Rod Serling's script and Anton Chekhov's short story. It may take a minute or so before the video begins. Be patient.
Step Three: Print and complete this Venn Diagram with the differences in the appropriate outer column and the similarities in the center overlap column.
Shallow differences like "Anton Chekhov" = written and "Twilight Zone" = TV are not acceptable.
Meaningless similarities like both titles begin with The or printing and video are both black and white are also not acceptable.
