Writing Commentary for the Literary Analysis Essay: Strategies for Success
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
In this 38-page bundle, I have provided students with two methods for crafting commentary that will help them not only write analysis but also take it to a deeper level: the "This Shows That Method" and the "LET" Method.
Writing commentary is without a doubt the most difficult aspect of the literary analysis essay. It is the ONE part for which there is no formula because it's the part of the essay that contains the writer's original thoughts, or commentary/ analysis, on the evidence of the essay.
This bundle also contains:
--Commentary vs. Plot Summary Practice
--Commentary Do's and Don'ts
--Teacher Approval Forms
--Commentary Four-Square Activity
--Commentary-Evidence Connection Guide
--Commentary Depth Guide
--Crafting Commentary Practice
--Essay Ratiocination Guide
--Commentary Task Cards
--Targeted Skill Rubric: Commentary
This is an essential bundle for the writing process because the commentary is the MOST IMPORTANT part of the literary analysis essay.
