High School Literature Outlines

This assessment requires students to choose one of three provided writing prompts and write a 5 paragraph essay (or 4 paragraph essay for differentiation) based on their chosen prompt. They must include an introductory paragraph, 2 or 3 body paragraphs (depending on what the teacher assigns), 2 pieces of supporting evidence per paragraph with proper MLA citations and a brief conclusion paragraph. There is an outline included for them to follow as well as a 20 point rubric for easy grading.

This can be done entirely as an in class essay or the prompts can be given to the students before hand so they can prepare their evidence on a notecard to bring to class. This alternative tends to streamline the writing process if doing it in class; although I generally do not allow them to bring in any other written materials.
