SOAPSTone AnalysisTextual Support Speaker: What does the reader know about the speaker? Occasion: What are the circumstances surrounding the text? Audience: Who is the target audience? Purpose: Why did the author write this text? Subject: What is the topic? Tone: What is the author’s tone, or attitude, towards the subject?

Homework Artistic Prompt: What would a self-portrait say about your perspective on your cultural identity? Create an artistic work that portrays aspects of this identity. Consider techniques and specific images you can use as evidence to depict and/or symbolize potential conflicts that arise when various aspects of your culture collide. Because artwork, like literature, speaks to an audience, keep in mind the message you want your audience to “read” as they view your work. Creative Writing Prompt: Write a poem emulating the style of Pat Mora and exploring your perspective on a key component of your cultural identity. Be sure to: Focus on a specific culturally based conflict, which may be internal, external, or both. Structure the poem to use juxtaposition for effect at least once. Use diction, syntax, and imagery to present your own voice.
