There is always a protagonist and an antagonist in short stories. There is also always a theme . In The White Heron the protagonist is the little girl and the antagonist or the bad guy is the hunter who wants to kill the white heron. The two year boy is the protagonist in this story and the antagonist is the little boy's father who whips him because his disagrees with his young son. The theme in The White Heron we thought was to be considerate rather than greedy. We thought the theme was to respect one another for who you are even if one is older than another.

The Tell-Tale Heart has several themes in common with A Jury of her Peers. Both stories involve ethics, empathy and discontent. The stories also intertwine murder, fear, and domestic life in a nice little package.

The short story, "Lamb To The Slaughter" was very suspenseful. There was a weird climax and resolution at the end where the wife had successfully gotten away with her husband's murder. The short story and the video are similar because it quickly rises to the climax, like "Test" had a climax at the very end. They both revolved around one central action that completely changed the outcome of the story. The theme was that every decision you make has a consequence. Both "Test'' and "Lamb To The Slaughter" involved decisions made by the main characters and their direct consequences afterward.

Both of the stories had a couple  and both had children. In "Feast," the couples dealt with their break-up healthily. In Lamb to the Slaughter, Mary murdered her husband. The theme in Lamb to the Slaughter may be mystery and having the answer be just under your nose. The theme in Feast could be putting others first.

As we were reading the short story there was an over-arching theme of robots taking over household chores. Most of the chores would be done by a human in this day and age. So we thought back to other short stories that we had read before. We had all (other than carter) had read a story called the veldt. In this story kids are no longer parented by their parents and instead they are distracted all day by a room in the house. in this room the walls come alive and it makes another world and the world is what ever the kids think it. Robots took over in the veldt as well as there will come soft rains and in both it ended badly.

These two stories take place in post-apocalyptic environments with the endless competition between machine and man. In these stories machine prevails. This supports our claim that human's creations will outlive the human.

"For a Breath I Tarry" is a highly regarded 1966 post-apocalyptic novelette by Roger Zelazny. Taking place long after the self-extinction of Man, it recounts the tale of Frost, a sentient machine ("...a silver-blue box, 40x40x40 feet,... featured in whatever manner he chose.") Though Man has disappeared, his robotic creations (and their creations in turn) continue to function.

All of the short stories we have read haven't had a good build up to the climax, and the plots were confusing. The stories had vivid language. The theme from "The Test" and the theme from "The Masque of the Red Death" both deal with safety.

We are comparing the White Heron to The Present. Their themes are similar because its about priorities and seeing things a different way. In the White Heron Sylvia's priorities change from the boy to the Heron and she sees nature as being more important. In The Present the little boys priorities change from video games to the dog. He dismisses the dog until he realizes he likes the dog because it is like him.

The wish has a slightly creepy tone to it, and this makes you want to keep reading because you know that something will happen. This is very much like Lamb to the Slaughter. This also relates to many Edgar Allen Poe short stories we read in an 8th grade short story unit.

They were very to the point. they had a lot of detail and themes. this story is like The Veldt by Ray Bradbury, is the mask of the red death you see karma catch up to the prince and the same thing happens to the parents in the veldt, they give their kids the thing they wanted the most and it came back to bite them.
