Wed/Thur, April 27/28, 2016 Objective: Students will prep for the IB paper 1 & Paper 2 Tips for your essays

Wed/Thur, April 27/28, 2016 Objective: Students will prep for the IB paper 1 & Paper 2 Return any and all graded work: Please read my comments on your timed writings. I read your essays and give individual feedback. Tips for your Paper 2: Know your candidate number Comparative language and transitions (Check your essay—add it!) The Things They Carried, The Handmaid’s Tale, Beloved, God of Small Things ABABAB Use this pattern throughout, A always comes first, B follows Be specific—title, author, names of characters, short quotations, details Use examples that range from beginning to end of novel—prove you read it. Spend 15 min planning and then write 5-8 pages (Or MORE) Write thesis at the end, after you have written your essay—leave blanks in intro To create commentary answer the following questions: To what effect? What is the purpose? So What? How? Why?

Wed/Thur, April 27/28, 2016 Objective: Students will prep for the IB paper 1 & Paper 2 While Morrison develops sympathy through the devastating portrayal of a mother’s actions, O’Brien creates sympathy through a son who is unable to share his pain with his father. Norman Bowker’s inability to speak to anyone about the trauma caused to him in Vietnam creates confusion at first, but ultimately builds sympathy from the reader. Bowker’s eventual suicide reminds the reader of the frail nature of the human psyche. Even though one is taught to be strong, war reduces that strength to basic survival needs. For example, Bowker feels degraded by the medals awarded to him on the night of Kiowa’s death. He feels that they mock him since he was unable to save his friend in the field. Therefore the medals serve strictly as a reminder of his failure. The reader understands his frustration and thus feels sympathetic to his internal struggle. O’Brien effectively controls the reader’s sympathy because we do not for sorry for the loss of Kiowa, instead we feel sorry for the impact his loss had on Bowker. Morrison and O’Brien effectively create sympathy in the readers through characterization. The mental destruction of Sethe from slavery reveals how deep
