--TIPS FOR ANNOTATING THE TEXT:
- Look for specific CHOICES THE AUTHOR MAKES WITH: language, repetition, dialogue, POV, tone, imagery, repetition, cause and effect, etc. AS WELL AS EXCERPTS THAT YOU LABELED AS EXAMPLES OF SPECIFIC APPEALS and be prepared to SHARE WITH THE CLASS your findings/annotations
- also annotate/note your comments about the story's thematic significance
- HOW the author creates meaning for READERS/AUDIENCE through rhetorical elements-choices/PURPOSE/CONTEXT within the text
- PLEASE BE READY TO SHARE SPECIFIC "TEXT EVIDENCE" THAT YOU CAN TIE TO A SPECIFIC APPEAL/CHOICE and EXPLAIN that choice/appeal
