Planning for tomorrow's assessment

Think about the novel, thematically... what have we talked about?

  1. You will get a quote
  2. Interpret the quote
  3. Agree OR disagree with the quote
  4. Support your interpretations with specific things from the text (in this case, The Bluest Eye)
  5. Each paragraph should address something specific relating to theme, author's craft, setting, characterization, symbolism, irony etc
  6. Conclude your essay coming back to the quote in some way... what do you want your reader to walk away thinking about?
