Monday
Today the students will inform me which analytical question they have chosen for their All Quiet on the Western Front essay. Then we will critique strong and weak thesis statements and the students will write their own thesis statements. For homework, revise your thesis statement and make a list of ideas and details form the book that you can use to support your ideas.
Tuesday
Today you will organize all of your relevant ideas and create an outline for your essay. Bring your completed outline and all of your notes to class tomorrow.
Wednesday
Today you will learn how to work literary quotations into your own writing and begin composing your rough draft. Finish your rough draft tonight for homework.
Thursday and Friday
You will read and comment on the first drafts of your classmates. Naturally, your classmates will also read and comment on the development of your essay so far. So make sure you come prepared both days.
