Once students have brainstormed, assign them a creative writing exercise, in which they will retell a chapter or episode from Loser from the limited first-person perspective of Zinkoff or another character. After the assignment is completed, ask them to share with the class the character they chose to write about and a summary of how the change in perspective changed the story.

How do they think it would feel if people perceived them as that "label" every day? Do they think that the labels that people receive are accurate and objective, or are they based on people's subjective judgment?
