Questions to think about when ANALYZING your evidence:
1. HOW does it connect to the THEME you chose?
2. Explain WHY you chose this panel/text?
3. Explain what is going on IN this panel or text / what lead up to this point (BEFORE) / what happened AFTER?
4. WHY are the characters doing what they’re doing? (Example: Persepolis’ parents are bringing her posters BECAUSE… They have to hide them BECAUSE…)
5. Look at the DETAILS in the panel. (Example: the lines, the facial expressions, the shadows… use the vocabulary in Dr. Ciciones “Annotating Persepolis” worksheet in Google Classroom to help you understand the different features within a graphic novel) Why do you think the author/illustrator chose to include these details/elements? Why is it important? How does it connect to your THEME?
