INSTRUCTIONS:
In this essay, I would like to write about the psychological change of Frank's Dad before and after the death of his son ( the image of a painful father seeing his beloved son murdered and the image of a cold-blooded murderer hiding a dead body into the woods). After you're done, could I have a rough draft and a final draft, please? Thank you Here is my teacher's instructions. 1000-1250 words Double-spaced Using your critical reading skills, evolve a persuasive thesis based on one of the following aspects of your reading: (You can consult the Making Literature Matter, pages 120-136 for ideas and guidance.) Characters—the way a character is presented and developed to cause the reader to think and feel a certain way Plot and Structure Setting Theme Point of view—example,the perspective from which the story is told, i.e. in the first-person (“The Yellow Wallpaper”) or the third-person (Paul’s Case) How much does the narrator know about the inner workings of the characters’ minds? In other words, how omniscientis the narrator? Imagery/Symbolism—What is the significance of the imagery? What does it tell us about the story? Form—The structure of the work as a whole Tone—the feeling of the work that you perceive through the words One helpful way to conceive of this paper is to look for patterns in the stories—look for things that stand out, and that make strong points about the work as a whole. Make a strong thesis statement, and do not shy away from speaking your truth. Develop a sense of passion about your own topic; become a true expert on one aspect of the story; show your reader how carefully you can think about words. You will need: 1) An effective introduction with a powerful thesis statement 2) Textual evidence to support your thesis with correct MLA formatting (See MLM 195-197) 3) Transitions between paragraphs and ideas 4) An effective conclusion
