Work period to complete your essay, to have it peer edited, and to revise and polish it. Use Paperrater.com and Grammarly to support you in your revision process.

If you are done your essay, please work on your Evidence of Learning document or complete the blog post for your second novel or an independent choice novel.

As a culminating task for this course you will be creating a portfolio. This portfolio will contain a variety of written and media texts that you create as a way to explore your ideas and interpretations about a book that you choose to read.

From May 26th:

You’ve read the book. You’ve talked about the book. You’ve chosen a topic and you’ve conducted some research on that topic.

You are now ready to write about the book. Review the literary analysis rubric to guide your work.

Literary devices
Power and Control
Point of View

Note that the above blogs are about 500 words in length. They use MLA formatting. These analyses do not include secondary sources, but if you check your rubric, you are not being assessed on that part. This assignment provides you with the opportunity to try your hand at incorporating evidence from secondary sources into your writing.
