Direct Instruction
Odyssey test.
Guided / Independent
Use a T chart to organize your thoughts prior to writing your 4 paragraph, compare / contrast essay. Write your thesis statement at the top and then, depending on your topic choice, list at least three examples from the text that you intend to include in the first paragraph (comparing) and then the second paragraph (contrasting). This will help you to see if you have enough strong evidence to support your thesis statement.
