What Is It? • A Window reading response allows you to see the literary aspects of a story or essay by focusing on key stylistic citations (quotes) and analyzing their significance in the context of what you’ve read. • These citations are framed around four important images from what you’ve read, allowing us to see what they mean, as if looking through a window at an image.
What It Is • For the assigned reading, choose three significant literary citations (quotes) that clearly represent: • The Theme • The Narrative Style • Your Favorite Passage • Each citation must be at least two sentences long and parenthetically cited • Next, in at least three sentences, analyze how the three citations provide insight into what you’ve read
How to do It • Place favorite passage quote at the top Favorite Narrative • Place narrative style example quote on the left • Place theme example quote on the right Theme • Place your analysis at the bottom Analysis • All four parts must be at least two sentences long • Be Sure to Label Each Citation!
Add Images Favorite • In the center of the frame, draw, cut out, or download pictures that clearly symbolize the three passages cited (quoted) and your analysis • Below each picture, explain how each image is a metaphor or symbol for each passage and your analysis of the story or essay Narrative Theme Analysis
