Fahrenheit 451 Quiz Part Two ("The Sieve and the Sand")
I searched high and low for a basic, close reading test that would simply show me whether students did their outside-of-class reading of FAHRENHEIT 451, and I found that none existed that met my needs (detailed + easy to grade). I was not striving for higher order thinking...just a basic, Accelerated-Reader-type quiz that would demonstrate completion of the assigned reading. The higher order thinking questions come out after my students have completed the reading--through Socratic Seminar. Thus,

How to Write a Rhetorical Analysis Essay for the AP Lang and Comp Exam
This is a step-by-step guide that explains how to write a rhetorical analysis essay (14 total steps). When I started teaching AP Language and Composition, I found it hard to explain the rhetorical analysis essay to my students. I typed up this document to help clarify the process for my students (and for me!), and we referred to it all year. It's a simple and straightforward list of steps. Teachers can use it as a teaching map for themselves, as each step of the process needs to be explicitly ta
