ESSAY PROMPT: Individual and Society
Prompt: What is a common message about the topic of the individual and society that is shown through the texts we read.  You need to use at least two texts from this topic, and prove one message/theme/big idea about “individual and society” that can be seen.  You should have at least one piece of textual evidence/specific detail from each to use as supporting details.  You then need to analyze how that piece of information proves the theme/message.

  • I can analyze how specific word choices build on one another to create a cumulative impact on the overall meaning and tone of a text
  • I can analyze how central ideas develop over the course of a text
  • I can choose a topic and id and select the most significant and relevant information to develop and share with my audience
  • I can present my information in an objective tone and formal style that includes an introduction statement/section, supporting details, varied transitions and syntax, and a concluding statement/section
