The essay begins.

It begins. Think of your essay as a fresh start.
A new opportunity to get better at writing.
Today's Goal: Now that we have some evidence to work with for our literary analysis, we need to examine that evidence and decide what argument to build and defend.

The Plan:
1. Book Love!
2. Examine your collected evidence
3. Create a thesis.
5. Start outlining your essay

Romeo and Juliet Essay

I have sent you a new document in Google Drive. It will be in your "Shared With Me" folder. Make sure you click and drag it into your "My Drive." Do not change the title I have given it.

You will find the prompt and due date inside the document, as well as a bunch of resources at the bottom.

CLICK HERE to view the evidence you gathered as a class to use as a resource. (It's not perfect, but it's a starting place.)

Below are some slides that can help you,too:
