The Prompt

4: It might be a tough lesson, but one that is warranted for improvement in prompt writing: close read the prompt and utilize its information to set up your passage close read and your essay. Mistakes come more from misreading the prompt that the actual jumbling of rhetorical strategies. Ergo, interact with your prompt and passage, note the words that stand out to you, group those words together to find patterns, build your "circles" to strategies and organizational patterns of the entire passage. Agenda-wise, we continued with vocab experts, completed a toolbox quiz (schedule makeup or take quiz a.s.a.p.), completed a class close read on the prompt passage, and prepped to be AP graders with the rangefinders, which you are to score each essay 1-9 dependent on ability, organization, and content.
