Today's agenda:
1) Spotlight reading
2) Discuss Quentin's section--questions and close reading
3) Writing practice--analyze a poem, write a thesis statement
4) Writing practice--review example essays. Look for the major three questions:
* what is the poem about?
* what is the point?
* How does the poem make that point?
* Examine structure, style.
5) How would you revise a lower level essay to make it better?
