Learning Target: I can use Meghan O'Rourke's essay on Hamlet and grieving to reflect on my own essay.
Controlling idea and sub-points
Connections
to Hamlet, other literature, personal, real-world, etc.
Voice...Places where her voice comes across clearly
2nd paragraph...
Controlling idea...What sentences in this paragraph further develop and focus her controlling idea?
Which lines signal a shift or evolution in thought or understanding?
What literary insights are shared?
Where is her voice strongest?
What personal examples does she use and what effect do they have?
Homework:
Finish reading and annotating for controlling idea, connections, and voice in Meghan O'Rourke's essay on Hamlet.
Next, read and annotate for controlling idea, connections, and voice in your Hamlet essay. Annotate for evidence of each component as well as how your paper might be lacking in some of those areas. Write suggestions for improvement in the margins.
Tomorrow...Bring in both the annotated O'Rourke essay and the annotated copy of your own. Also bring in a clean copy of your essay (revised or not) for a peer to take a look at tomorrow.
