Please help. This is supposed to be a group project but I really haven't had much help in that are. The assignment had three parts. I have already completed the first two but I am having problems pulling the last part together: here is what it asks to do.

1. Examine your group's first set of responses and look for ways in which your interpretations agreed with and/or disagreed with the sample student essays.
2 As a group, create one essay that summarizes your group's responses to all of the questions above.

The essay should be a report about the conclusions that group came to, both about the story and about the sample student explications of the story. Since participation isn't what it was supposed to be I'm having a hard time here.

I have attached parts 1 and 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
