Saddlemomma Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 DD will be a freshman this fall. For our English class, I purchased IEW's Elegant Essay, however, because DD really wants to do ancient lit to coincide with ancient history, I didn't want to do WTTW for our comp portion of the class. Therefore, I needed to find another way to teach DD lit analysis. I didn't want to have to purchase yet another text, so I went online to see if I could find something....I was fortunate to find the following: Literary Devices (full list of literary devices, as well as copious info on essays) Roane State CC Online Writing Lab (this also has info for Essays, Research Papers, MLA & APA Style Citations) Purdue Online Writing Lab How To Write a Literary Analysis Paper (This is a PDF) Helpful YouTube videos to use as supplemental resources: (CAUTION: This is really a fantastic video about one young woman's journey into annotating, why she does it, how she started and has progressed. Unfortunately, she also uses foul language 2-3x - no profuse, just a couple words 2 or 3x) Annotating Text While finding the above on YouTube, I noticed some high school advice tutorials. I figure they would be great to add as daily helpful hints for DD first thing each morning. etc... 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
