Rhetoric Literature Co-op #2 Frankenstein #2

[LeeAnnP]

Attached is the homework for Frankenstein.

Homework notes from Co-op #1:
- all of you did well on the Poetics questions (no questions this week - just a tiny bit of reading:)
- the Frankenstein analysis questions are designed to prepare you for writing about about literature. We want you to learn to work smarter (not harder), so AS YOU READ, have your questions with you. Pay attention and document AS YOU READ - so you are not later scrambling to find quotations and details in the book.

- in any formal academic writing (this includes literary analysis), no one cares what your opinions are or what catch words you pulled off the internet to answer your questions, if you cannot back them up from the text. Specific details, quotations, and page numbers prove that you really know what you are talking about

A word about my grading:
- I expect more the longer you've had me in class.
-Some of my questions will have right or wrong answers (like the Poetics questions)
-Some of my questions will be opinion or analysis questions - I want to see that you are thinking. Show me your questions, your uncertainties, your trains of thought. I don't mind you looking online to help you with your ideas, but I want the actual answers to be in your own words with examples from your reading.
-If I write suggestions or questions on your work, this is to help you see the direction I want you to go with those types of questions. Lots of grace - but I want to see you trying.

So good to see you all today,
Mrs. P
