Take a look at a sample attention getter that would support your thesis statement. there are 5 types of attention getters but we are going to focus on using just 1 type for this writing practice. let’s figure out how to identify quotes that would be useful ways to approach getting the attention of your audience. if i were writing an essay about dogs being superior to cats, for example, i might look for a quote about a dog being man’s best friend. if i were writing about the intricate workings of the brain, i might look for a quote about how men think. whatever i choose, i need to find some way to show that it is relevant to the rest of the essay throughout my paper. i will do this through transitions and a lead in to my thesis statement, which we will work on next. for today, find 5 quotes that might go with 5 thesis statements. (you should use the 5 thesis statements that you created two lessons ago, ideally, but if you don’t have those, or you don’t want to use them, find quotes that might go with a paper about how the brain works.)

Construct a written analysis of approximately 300−500 words about the poem “the cremation of sam mcgee.” your analysis should explain how the figurative language and literary devices contribute either to the meaning or to the narrative structure— plot, setting, characterization, and point of view—of the poem. your analysis should contain a thesis that is discussed throughout the essay. the essay should also contain textual evidence to support the analysis and a concluding paragraph. be sure to use correct punctuation, grammar, and spelling, and write using a formal style with precise vocabulary. use terms from the list provided below to construct your analysis. ballad—a type of narrative poem that tells a story, usually in the form of a folktale or legend stanza—a division of a poem that consists of two or more lines diction—the selection and use of words that influence the style and tone of the poem connotation—the emotional suggestion or implied meaning of a word that goes beyond its dictionary definition denotation—the actual or dictionary definition of a word rhythm—the recurrence of sound patterns created by a series of stressed and unstressed syllables meter—the pattern of beats within a line of poetry created by the rhythmic structure of stressed sounds rhyme scheme—a pattern of rhymes in poetry tone—the attitude of the poet toward the subject or readers, separate from mood or atmosphere mood—the overall or prevailing feeling that is created in a story or poem theme—the central idea of the story that reveals something about human life or behavior as you write your analysis, consider these questions: what is the function of rhyme in the poem? what would the poem be like if it did not rhyme? how do the rhyme and rhythm affect or enhance the meaning of the poem? how does the use of imagery and figurative language affect the poem? how is the subject matter and conflict affected by the structure of the poem? did i conclude my analysis clearly, supporting my analysis?
