We began class examining sample essays (2005 AP Exam Free Response Question) in order to determine the high, medium, and low achieving essays.
Due next class: (See Reading Calendar on the Unit III page).
In class yesterday, we practice developing questions that require close reading of a passage from The Awakening to prepare for the unit test. Please see the Unit II: Interpreting Literature main page to see the practice passage and the multiple-choice questions developed by Kara, Moises, and Niani about Chapter XI of The Awakening. The structure of the unit test is as follows:
*I have finished providing feedback on the first drafts of your extended interpretive essays. Read the general as well as line-specific comments as you revise and prepare your final drafts. I am attaching an extended interpretive essay I wrote last year that analyzes the use of characterization in two works by Ray Bradbury, his short story "The Veldt" and his novel Fahrenheit 451. |
