independent learning
Students are provided with resources such as notes, videos, and suggested readings, but are expected to use these tools independently to craft their essays. This process reduces reliance on step-by-step guidance and encourages critical thinking and self-direction.
Essay Structures
Despite the increased independence, students are always given examples and a clear structure for their essays to ensure they understand the expectations. These structures help guide them in organizing their thoughts and arguments effectively.
Essay Types
Opinion Essays: Building on skills from previous courses, students refine their ability to form and support opinions with research-based arguments.
Compare and Contrast Essays: Students learn how to analyze two subjects and explain their similarities and differences, honing their analytical and critical thinking abilities.
Hamburger Essays: Students craft clear essays with a proper introduction and conclusion, using 1–3 body paragraphs to practice topic sentences, evidence and explanation, and transitions for strong overall organization.

Genre Introductions
Students are introduced to the genre through focused lessons and a developed written response. This ensures they understand the conventions and themes before moving into deeper analysis.
Developed Responses
Development A: A consistent task across all levels that emphasizes genre-specific skills, ensuring students gain a solid foundation in literary analysis.
Development B: Students apply a variety of essay structures to explore themes, characters, or setting in depth. With the support of a guided PowerPoint, they learn to craft analytical responses that go beyond comprehension and focus on interpretation and critical evaluation.
