**FYI, FOR YOUR WRITING REVISION (i.e., stuff that 'counts off points from your grade'):

AP LANG. RHETORICAL ANALYSIS EXT. PARA. FINAL DRAFT QUICK REVISION REFERENCE LIST:
 **REMEMBER FIRST ALWAYS: IDENTIFY THE AUDIENCE AND PURPOSE [the RHETORICAL SITUATION] OF YOUR ASSIGNMENT!**

__MLA heading/last name header in right-hand corner
__BE CONSISTENT WITH FONT TYPE/SIZE, PLEASE!^^^

__TITLE: TTTC “Name of Chapter”

__ONE extended paragraph; 8-12 sentences

__Keep PV to minimal use ('70-30' rule)

__Have a 2-3 sentence intro to ‘hook’ readers, THEN introduce the ONE rhetorical element (**or two/see me for details**) you are going to explore/explain—BE EXPLICIT and actually “SAY IT”:  “Through O’Brien’s logical appeal to the audience, he….” and “…his tone appeals to the audience’s sense of emotions through…”

__Use AT LEAST one example/BLENDED “quote” from the text to show your findings and HOW this works; i.e., “O’Brien’s use of negative diction and word choice…” AND HOW THIS ELEMENT WORKS WITHIN THE TEXT/UPON THE AUDIENCE (#).

__*MLA-style format for quotes w/titles and commas: For example, in “Spin,”...

__USE THIRD PERSON OBJECTIVE or--and see me w/this--you can SOMETIMES get away with 1^st person PLURAL (‘we’) 

__KEEP THE TENSE RE: LITERATURE PRESENT: “Kiowa’s experiences transform him…." (not ‘TRANSFORM‘ED’…”)

__CONCLUDE your ext. para. w/a referral back to the rhetorical element(s) you have explained; DO NOT FALL INTO THE ‘ABYSS of INCOHERENCE’ as you end your analysis!
__**follow all misc. MLA/writing conventions rules and guidelines we've touched on the past few days and will add to over the next few days!
__MAKE SURE YOU'VE ADDED A CORRECT WORK CITED ENTRY for TTTC to the bottom of your ext. paragraph

**********************
**ALSO REMEMBER: 

• BRING YOUR COPY OF TTTC TO CLASS EVERY DAY; I'll be taking these up [maybe] before fall break!
