  11. Learning Goals: SWBATDescribe in their own words and illustrate analysis. Explain the relationship between evidence, contextualization and analysis. What is Analysis? Description: • Analysis is the process of breaking down a complex idea into smaller parts in order to gain a better understanding of it. • The dissection of an idea in order to organize thoughts • Taking an idea apart as a way to gain a deeper understanding • Taking apart an idea and looking closely at the parts and trying to understand how all the parts connect/relate to form the big picture.

  12. Learning Goals: SWBATDescribe in their own words and illustrate analysis. Explain the relationship between evidence, contextualization and analysis. In Essay Writing, Analysis… • Is when you take apart the big idea of your essay (your thesis) by breaking it down into three parts (your sub-arguments in each of your body paragraphs) • The topic sentence, or sub-argument of the three body paragraphs is a part of your analysis of your thesis. • Is when you break down your evidence and explain how your evidence is connected to your sub-argument and to the big idea. • Comes after your contextualization and after your evidence. • Is longer than your contextualization. • Looks closely at parts of the evidence– specific important words/phrases, rather than just the whole quote. • Always answers the questions: Why?Why is this an important quote in support of the big idea of the essay? How? How does this piece of evidence relate to the other pieces of my analysis?

Analysis: Whole class! • Topic Sentence/sub-argument that connects to a part of the thesis/prompt and the evidence: Prospero believed that his brother Antonio betrayed him. This caused him to change as be became bitter and angry and motivated by revenge. Contextualization/Background Information about the quote-- In act one, scene two, Prospero decides to finally talk to his daughter Miranda about the past and how they ended up on the island. He asks her if she has any memories of life in Milan and she confesses that she has only a few. She doesn’t know that her father was the former Duke of Milan. He says, Quote/Evidence Analysis: When Prospero refers to his brother as “perfidious” he is telling Miranda that his brother betrayed him. He tells Miranda that he loved Antonio more than anyone next to his own daughter, “he whom next to thyself/Of all the world I loved”. He also tells her that he trusted his brother with his Dukedom while he focused on his magic. Despite this love and trust, Antonio stabbed him in the back and stole Prospero’s political power. This causes Prospero to be consumed with anger as the person who was closest to him in the world caused him intense pain.

  23. Friday 2/18/11Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis.2. Compose chained sentences in the body paragraphs of their Tempest essays. Do Now: Agenda: Do Now and HW check: outline Lesson: What is sentence chaining? What are the types? How will it help me with analysis in the body paragraphs of my essay? Partner Practice: Writing sentence chains Homework: 1. Typed first draft of essay due on Monday 2/28/11. 2. Visit the blog if you forget what to do or need to review the lessons from this week www.phaenglish.wordpress.com • Read the following sentences from one of the body paragraphs of a fake student’s essay: • What do you think? What could the writer do to make his/her writing more interesting or analytical? Prospero was betrayed by his brother Antonio. Prospero wanted revenge on Antonio and his other enemies. He learned a lot of magic to help him accomplish revenge. Prospero worked on his magic for 12 years while he was on the island with his daughter Miranda. He was obsessed with getting revenge. This supports my thesis statement because it shows that Prospero wanted revenge after his brother betrayed him.

  24. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Parts of the Sentence • There are two parts to every sentence: a topic and a comment. • The topic of a sentence is the beginning of the sentence and tells what the sentence is about. • The comment is the rest of the sentence. It’s what the writer has to say about the topic.

  25. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Practice Directions: Work with a partner to identify the topic and the comment in each of the sentences below. Underline the topic and double underline the comment. • Miranda tells her father that she has very few memories of her life in Milan. • Caliban is afraid Prospero because he is sometimes tortured by his spirits. • Trinculo and Stephano attempt to usurp the island from Prospero. • Time and time again, Ariel fulfills each part of Prospero’s plan. • Ariel longs for freedom. • Freedom is important to Ariel. • Greed motivates Antonio to convince Sebastian to try to kill Alonso and Gonzalo. • This attempted murder was prevented by Ariel’s invisible presence. • Forgiveness wins out over revenge at the end of the play. • True love never dies.

  29. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. What is Sentence Chaining? • A writing technique used to improve style and to expand on ideas and analysis of a big idea. • Connecting the comment of a sentence to the topic of the sentence that comes after it. This helps you build on your ideas and expand your thinking. • It helps writers avoid repetitive dead end writing (like the Do Now) and helps the reader follow your line of thinking.

  30. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Sentence Chaining Technique #1 • You’ve probably been told that repetition is bad. It’s true that you don’t want to overdo it! Overrepetition can make your writing monotonous. However, some repetition can be useful in helping you develop your ideas. • You can take a word from a comment and repeat it in the following topic. • Examples:

  31. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Nominalization • Nominalization is a word that means taking a word that isn’t a noun and turning it into a noun. • Often this can be done by adding –ion, -ness, -ityto the end. So a verb like communicate can be turned into the noun communication. The word polite can become the noun politeness, or the word scarce can become scarcity. • Using nominalization, a verb or adjective in a comment can be turned into a noun in the next topic. Example:

  32. Learning Goals: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Substitution • To substitute, you can use a synonym for one of the key words in the comment, use a pronoun, or summarize the main idea of the comment. • Sometimes writers try to summarize just with the pronoun this. However, this often leave the reader wondering what this refers to. • When using this, it is best, most of the time, to follow it with at least a noun that indicates to the reader what you’re discussing. Example:
