Middle school classroom decor has never been so useful! Research shows that displaying text evidence stems encourages students to provide more evidence when speaking and writing. This bulletin board decor set includes the language that we like older students to use. That means NO personal pronoun terminology,

AP Lit Prose Essay Prompt on The Story of an Hour by Kate Chopin
This is an AP Lit prose essay prompt on "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin.

The students have a hard time identifying what is implied in the story, which I find is a great teaching opportunity.I have included my annotations of the story as well as an outline.
