Crafting an AMAZING Literary Analysis Paragraph Response Assignment Details:
- Re-read
your literary analysis paragraph (section IV of the Short Story Unit Exam)
with the list from last class/specific feedback for questions 17 and 18 in
mind--make revisions accordingly.
- If
you have not already done so, type your revised response in proper MLA
format for submission on Monday, January 7th at the beginning
of class.
- This
writing assignment will receive three scores total, all three of which
will count within the Writing portion of your overall Quarter 2 average:
- One
score will be determined via the format rubric you picked up last class
class--mastery of MLA format is important, so be especially careful! This score will count once.
- Another
score will be determined via the Meaning, Development, Organization,
Language Use, and Conventions framework--this score will count twice.
- Your
M, D, O, L, C score will be included within your Writing Portfolio--remember that you must receive a score
of 85% or higher in order for this assignment to go into the portfolio
without further revisions/rewriting.
- Your M, D, O, L, C score will also be converted to a score out of 30 and determine the remainder of the points allotted for your Short Story Unit exam.
