Wednesday’s class will be held in our online Zoom room again! Join me at noon here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2540700526. Remember, if you are on campus, you can go to Namm 321 to use the conference room I reserved for you.

  • For Wednesday, find an example of your chosen genre and study it carefully. Save the sample so you can refer to it in class.
  • In your Unit 3 Writing document, answer the following questions (again) about the specific sample you studied.
    • 4. Analyzing your Sample:
      • Are the paragraphs long or short? How long is the overall piece?
      • Is imagery used? If so, what type?
      • From what point of view is the piece written? (1st person, 2nd person, 3rd person, a mixture, something else?)
      • Is there dialogue or is just one person talking?
      • How is it organized?
      • What is the tone and purpose?
