Homework for Winter Break - B Day Students

Honors English II

Over break your priority is to work on the formative steps of your essay and then complete your rough draft of the assignment.  Here is your process, as I would recommend you complete it:

  1. Complete your argument.  Make sure that it fully answers the question and deals with the greater significance of what you are discussing.
  2. Divide the argument into topics.  Which elements of the story will you need to discuss?  How will you organize and link the topics?  How can you break your argument into pieces?
  3. Find evidence to discuss within the topics.  Annotate panels.  Organize your notes and develop your commentary.  Explain how your argument is true based on the information.
  4. Construct your draft.
Your drafts are due on the 8th of January.  Make sure to have them this day.  I'm available to you over break via e-mail if you have any questions while you're working.
