Homework

  • Choose either your song, movie, or one of the three short stories you wrote a paper on to do research for.  You will look for sources that help support your analysis of the piece. You want to find 6 sources.  After you've found your six sources you will create an annotated bibliography (see Sample Annotated Bibliography in sidebar under Class Documents for an example).  You will write each source in MLA format and underneath write a paragraph describing the source and its relevance to your paper.  Do not limit your research to only sources about your piece.  You can also find sources about ideas or issues that are presented in your piece.  For instance, if you wrote about "The Yellow Wallpaper" you can find sources about the treatment of women in the 1800s or the treatment of mental illness during this time period. This is due Monday.
  • You will use your research and my detailed feedback (you will receive this Monday or Tuesday) to revise your paper for Friday.
