We continue to prepare for next week's AP exam by completing practice tests. Today, we addressed strategies for analyzing and composing the prose analysis essay by reviewing the essay Joshua completed for homework last evening.. We first focused on the prompt -a character's complex view of her changed environment . Joshua's essay impressively addressed many techniques and elements but we addressed how to expand the scope of his analysis to earn what the AP describes as the "sophistication point." I explained the contrast in environments can also be described as a contrast between order and dissonance with the main character yearning for dissonance which the passage symbolically associates with sunlight. For our final test review, I assigned a literary argument essay which we will review and discuss next week before the exam.
