Writing Context:

You have completed this week's reading and viewing, and you have an introductory understanding of the requirements for the Analysis Essay Rough Draft.

Writing Directions:

Word count is not as important for this initial discussion post as following the instructions is.  This post is designed to assist you in prewriting and organizing your thoughts for your analysis essay.  Number each step and provide your responses directly after each number, labeled as shown below.  Compose an initial post regarding the following prompt:

 http://documentarylovers.com/film/miss-representation/ VIDEO (LOOK AT THIS FULL DOCUMENTARY MISS REPRESENTATION)

1. Identify the focus of your rhetorical analysis regarding the full documentary of Miss Representation.

2. Be sure that you have three reasons to support your claim.  They should each be strong enough to support a 6-8 sentence body paragraph.

3. State your thesis statement, formatted as shown in the course materials.  (A simple formula to follow is: The main idea is A because 1, 2, and 3.  Another formula is: Even though A, the main idea is B because 1, 2, and 3.)  

4. Locate supporting evidence from the full documentary for each of the three reasons.  (Be sure to use the MEAL plan when creating your paragraphs in the rough draft). 

5. Offer a preliminary ending for your conclusion.
