In the unit you're reading (or have just finished reading), there must be "other worlds" involved -- they might be named, described, etc.
Choose two of those and compare (tell and explain similarities) and contrast (tell and explain differences) how they affected the real world for the characters.
-------------------------
Whenever you are writing a comparison/contrast paper, you need to plan it out very carefully on paper first.
Try this:
1. Brainstorm about one of the "other worlds" on one piece of paper. Write down everything you can think of about it -- description, what goes on there, etc.
2. Brainstorm about the other of the "other worlds" on a separate piece of paper.
3. Then read over your brainstorming. Indicate all things that are similar with one symbol (maybe stars), and indicate all things that are differences (or maybe opposites) with a different symbol.
4. Then put them together in this order:
1. Intro (Write this LAST, not first!)
2. All about topic A that contrasts with topic B
~~~2A. detail 1
~~~2B. detail 2
~~~2C. detail 3
~~~2D. detail 4
~~~2E. detail 5
3. All about topic B
~~~3A. detail 1
~~~3B. detail 2
~~~3C. detail 3
~~~3D. detail 4
~~~3E. detail 5
4. Concl. (Write this next-to-last.)
The number of details for each topic will vary depending on your main points. I would include comparisons (how they are similar) in the introduction and conclusion, but sections 2 and 3 and all those details will be stating and explaining how they are different.
There are two recognized patterns for writing comparison/contrast papers. One is casually referred to as "zig-zag,” but can be very confusing for the reader if you don’t use transitions effectively. The other is topic-by-topic (which is what I've outlined above) and is much easier for the reader to follow.

Once you have organized your information, please re-post if you’d like feedback from someone here.
Choose two of the “other worlds” described in the unit. Compare and contrast the way these other worlds impacted the real-life world for characters.
