  8. Timed Write Question Practice • I will give you 20 minutes. • I would like you to read, annotate and write a thesis for the question.

  9. Thesis check • Does your thesis: include the word “diction” connect how diction is used to convey his attitude BRIEFLY mention what his attitude is

  10. Once you have a thesis you like - • Create a list of words you would use to prove your thesis in the essay because you cannot talk about diction without mentioning specific words
