Please follow the format described in the Close Reading PowerPoint  for  each analysis paragraph. (Sample PowerPoint Attached) 

For a more detailed presentation, please use the PowerPoint. 

Also incorporate quotations smoothly into your text, paying close attention to the following issues:


  • Include an in-text citation for each quotation (just the page number in parentheses needed for works for literature),
  • Use a signal phrase or otherwise smoothly integrate quotations into the structure of your sentences, and
  • Quote dialogue from a play properly.

This assignment should represent your original thinking.  Any summary or analysis that you include in this assignment must be your own; please do not use any outside sources for summary or analysis even with citation as this paper is not a research assignment. 

Moreover, using outside sources word-for-word or paraphrased without citation constitutes plagiarism.  The purpose of this class is to receive feedback on and improve your writing, but if the writing is not yours, then the feedback you receive from your peers and me is meaningless. Plagiarized assignments will earn a zero grade.

*You may, however, use biographical sources if appropriate.
