  7. Microtheme

  8. What is a microtheme? • Brief essay that is very specific • The MICROTHEME, a brief essay limited to one side of a 5" x 8" index card, is an ideal instrument for painlessly increasing the written content of a course. Brief, and thus easily graded, it is educationally sound, for a great deal of thinking must precede the writing.

  9. 1st Sentence • Restate the question or prompt, include a thesis statement (your opinion, feeling), the TAG (Title, Author, Genre) and include the 3 details you will be discussing. • This might be a long sentence – so watch your sentence structure to make sure you don’t use run-on sentences!

  10. 2nd Sentence • Address the first point (detail) you introduced in your thesis statement.

  11. 3rd Sentence • Provide evidence from the text (cite an example) that supports your statement from the 2nd sentence • Describe evidence (background to quote), give quote and page number.

  12. 4th Sentence • Analysis of your example provided in the 3rd sentence. • Explain how or why your example answers the prompt.

  13. 5th Sentence • Address the second point (detail) you introduced in your thesis statement.

  14. 6th Sentence • Provide evidence from the text (cite an example) that supports your statement from the 5th sentence (2nd detail). • Describe evidence (background to quote), give quote and page number.

  15. 7th Sentence • Analysis of your example provided in the 6th sentence. • Explain how or why your example answers the prompt

  16. 8th Sentence • Address the third point (detail) you introduced in your thesis statement.

  17. 9th Sentence • Provide evidence from the text (cite an example) that supports your statement from the 8th sentence. • Describe evidence (background to quote), give quote and page number.

  18. 10th Sentence • Analysis of your example provided in the 9th sentence. • Explain how or why your example answers the prompt.

  19. 11th and 12th Sentence • This is your conclusion sentence(s) that restates the thesis and wraps up the piece with a nice bow! • Your entire microtheme will be 11 - 12 sentences total!
