Guidelines

Summary:

Provide a general overview of the chapter. This should be no longer than a paragraph.

Analysis:

Analyze the chapter. Use class discussions and the discussion questions to help guide your analysis. What are important themes? Discuss characterization, symbolism and allegory especially in this section. Consider the purpose of certain scenes and interactions. Consider the author's purpose. This will be your longest section and should be anywhere from 4 -6 substantial paragraphs. Remember to use textual evidence. You may paraphrase or use quotations, but be sure to cite pages. Example: "Ralph looked through him. Here at last was the imagined but never fully realized place leaping into real life" (15). We will discuss proper MLA format another time, but for now you may use Purdue OWL as a resource.

Literary Devices:

List any and all literary devices used in this chapter. Define each device and provide examples from the text. You should have at least three literary devices. You may not use characterization, symbolism or allegory in this section because they are thoroughly covered in the Analysis section. Explain why Golding uses the devices. What does their use add to the story? You may use your literary terms list as a reference. Each device should have at least a paragraph devoted to it.

Important Quotations:

Include any quotes that you deem important or might be useful in an essay. Provide page numbers using MLA format.

Media:

Include images, videos, mp3s, etc. to enhance your page. You are required to include at least ONE and you must explain why it was included.
