Now that we have finished reading Fences and you are completing your final project, reflect on your overall understanding of the play. Which character, conflict, or theme has stood out to you the most, and why? Explain how your project represents what you learned about the play.

 The character who stood out to me the most in Fences was Cory because of his conflict with his father, Troy. Cory wants to follow his dream of playing football, but Troy does not support him because of his own experiences with racism and discrimination. This shows how Troy’s past affects the way he treats his family. My project represents what I learned about the play because it shows the different conflicts between family members and how their choices can affect each other. Overall, Fences taught me that family relationships can be complicated, and sometimes people’s past experiences shape how they treat others.
