1) Read “Boyfriend”, p. 111-117 in Drown
Annotate, on the Post-Its, as you read. Remember what those Post-Its should be marking:
-important moments in plot
-important moments in character development
-important uses of figurative language (symbolism, metaphor, simile, imagery)
-WTF questions
-ANYTHING THAT MIGHT HELP TO SUPPORT YOUR THESIS2) Solidify your thesis statements (you can continue working together for this)
3) Start gathering "effective" evidence, that will support your thesis. Actually type up those quotes, from various chapters in the book.
4) If you are comfortable with all of those steps, then you can move on to starting your analysis: take notes on the literary tools you see the author using, in each quote. The list of tools is on the blog, but here's a link: LITERARY TOOLS
