- Poem of the Week (POW):
- AP essay practice: On the sample prompt, make notes that show you have analyzed the topic and annotate the poem for ideas that would help you respond to the topic. Then, write a thesis statement at the bottom of the prompt page that fully answers the prompt. Turn in this page with your homework annotations on the poem.
- Read the sample essays for the prompt. Pay attention to qualities in the sample essays that are strengths and weaknesses. See if you can determine which essay is the upper score, which is the middle and which essay would score the lowest.
