AN INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH  
Your essay should include a full introductory paragraph. As explained in the slideshow Writing an Effective Introduction (in Module 2), an effective introductory paragraph should…
Evoke readers’ interest (making the closed research theme reading and your response to it relevant and provocative to your readers).
Describe the topic (using a “They Say” move to identify the reading’s title, author, purpose, and other rhetorical features of the text, as needed).
Present a thesis statement  (briefly communicating your “I Say” in response to the closed research theme reading, possibly using a template for responding found in Chapter 4 of They Say / I Say).
A SUMMARY OF THE CLOSED RESEARCH THEME READING
Your essay should fully summarize the closed research theme reading you chose, beginning by communicating the overall main idea of the reading and highlighting key points and details that are especially relevant to understanding the author’s message and your response to it.
In general, an effective summary will…
Begin with a “They Say” move to communicate the overall main idea of the reading, possibly using a template for summarizing in found Chapter 2 of “They Say / I Say”.
Regularly use “They Say” moves and signal verbs (see Chapters 1-3 of “They Say / I Say”) to summarize and sometimes quote key ideas and information from the reading.
Be objective and fair to the ideas and views of the author.
Be primarily written in 3rd person point of view.
Avoid including your own opinions.
Be limited to less than a page double-spaced.
CITATION AND DOCUMENTATION
Your drafts should be formatted and documented based on MLA style. Use in-text citations to cite “They Say” summaries and quotations from the closed research theme reading, as well as summaries or quotations from any other outside sources you use, if you use any. Lastly, provide a list of sources, based on your citation style. Your list of sources will definitely list ONE source–the closed research theme reading you chose.  Other sources are not expected or required, but if you use any additional sources, you should list those as well.
Half Draft (due in Module 2)

For this week’s response paper, choose ONE of the prompts below: 
Discuss the portrayal of women in one or more of the stories we’ve read so far. Are they flat or round characters? Static or dynamic? To what degree, in your opinion, are the main female characters depicted in stereotypical ways- and do you think the author was fully aware of any gender stereotypes in his or her depictions? Incorporate evidence from the text(s) in your response.
Imagine for a moment that someone was going to take all of the stories assigned in weeks 1 and 2 and destroy them forever: no one in future generations could read about these characters, and no one who had read these would ever again remember them. Somehow, though, you had an opportunity to save ONE of these texts from eradication. Which of these stories would you save for future generations, and why? Think specifically about character as you respond.   
Do you think that this week’s characters are more to blame for the conflicts and adversities they face, or does the fault lie more greatly in the outside forces affecting them? Pick a side. To answer this question more specifically, imagine for a moment that each of this week’s protagonists were on trial; you can choose to either prosecute or defend each one of them. Which would you prosecute? Which would you defend? Explain.   
Swap characters from any two of these week 1-2 stories into the other’s story, in that character’s place. How would either or both of these stories change as a result, and why?

Read the short story “Systems” by Charles Yu.  It can be found in the Short Stories folder in Unit 6.  Answer the prompt below.
A theme is a main idea, lesson or meaning that a story communicates.  There can be more than one theme and the theme can be conveyed using any of the literary elements – symbolism, setting, character, dialogue, imagery, etc. Themes often attempt to tell us something about human nature—to present some universal truth about our experience and place in the world.  
What is one of the themes of this story?  Use quotations from the story to support your claim about the theme.
Keep in mind that you are not being asked to summarize the story.  All of your classmates have read it as well.  Your job it to interpret the story–to explain what it means to you and how that meaning is conveyed.
