ESSAY 2: JUSTIFYING AN EVALUATION (FILM)Word Count: 1000 word minimum not counting the works cited page or headings. (Essays shorter than this will see a deduction in the essay grade)Be aware:When an assignment is given, it will not include every aspect of what is expected. For example, my instructions don’t state that words must be spelled correctly or that periods must be included. These are also important elements when writing. A five-paragraph essay belongs in middle school and high school and not in college. An essay the length of 1000 words is too long for the basic format of the five-paragraph essay because paragraphs should not be pages long. In addition, as one advances through one’s education, essays get longer, and it is important to know how to organize an even longer essay. Could you imagine reading a 12 page essay containing only five paragraphs? It would get confusing and convoluted; the same thing happens on a smaller scale with 1000 words, so it is important to have at least eight paragraphs.· Write a 1000 word minimum evaluation (a review) of Night of the Living Dead. The paper will include a works cited page for the movie and an optional review from Roger Ebert Film Reviews or the documentary Birth of the Living Dead; no other sources will be used. Choosing to use additional sources will result in lowering of the essay grade. Be aware that the works cited page and headings DO NOT COUNT TOWARD WORD COUNT. Word count only includes the body of the paper.· Link to movie: Night of the Living Dead . You may need to click on “open this content in a new window.” Other options include opening the movie directly in YouTube, or if you are subscribed to Amazon Prime, the movie is also available there as of this posting. If viewing on YouTube, make sure you are watching the black and white version uploaded by American Film Institute published on Aug 26, 2014 and is the only approved source for the assignment. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER SOURCES for the works cited entry for the film.· If you would like to view a documentary on the film, Amazon Prime also has Birth of the Living Dead. This documentary may be used as a secondary source in place of the Roger Ebert review; use one or the other, but not both.· No. You may not substitute any other movie or alternative topic for this paper.ESSAY 2: JUSTIFYING AN EVALUATION ( Night of the Living Dead )Length: Minimum of 1000 words not counting the Works Cited page or headings. Questions? Please ask.

This activity builds upon the Proficiency Level Analysis assignment from Topic 3. You will use the groups that you created in that topic for this assignment. Select one of the seventh-grade passages from the New K-8 Reading Passages website. Please note you must sign up for a free registration to have access to these passages. Create a 5-8 slide PowerPoint that could be used to demonstrate vocabulary strategies to your colleagues. Your PowerPoint should include the following: Key vocabulary that you would pre-teach the students in Ms. Jensen’s class; One strategy you would use to pre-teach this vocabulary to this group of students; and One strategy to practice this vocabulary later in the lesson. In addition, include a reference slide with 3-5 references from the required readings or other sources to support the reasons for choosing these strategies. While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. This assignment uses a grading rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Once you have decided on a thesis statement, you have a direction. That doesn’t mean that you are fully prepared to write. You need to map out your route. Many students write like a traveler with a somewhat clear view of where they want to be, one that starts driving in the general direction with no clear idea of the best path to take, ending up down side streets and getting trapped in dead ends. Basically, students who write like this end up taking unnecessary detours that prolong the trip without adding any real progress. In the end, the traveller, like the students, is just glad to arrive and be done with the trip. Believe me when I say that planning your paper can make things much easier and efficient. There are two main ways to do this. First, you can come up with main points, which is fine. This option is like using a map. You plan out each road and highway you plan to take meticulously before the trip. If you can conceive a clear path forward through a series of main points, I definitely suggest that you do so. However, most students have problems with this, which is why they often take the easy though decidedly more messy and inefficient way and just start writing. Most students deal with time constraints as well, which also steers them towards this option. However, there is another way forward. This method takes a little more time than just writing blindly, but it really allows the essay to write itself. The second method is a lot like using a GPS. You punch in the coordinates and then just have to follow the directions given to you with appropriate actions. Punching in coordinates in this case represents choosing your quotes. Most students just pepper in quotes as they push forward blindly through the essay. However, if you take the time to choose the quotes you want to use carefully and then arrange them as best you can in an order that seems appropriate, you can think of that as your way forward. You need two quotes per paragraph, and you need three paragraphs. That means you just have to choose six good quotes from the story that you think are the most important. How do you know which quotes are important? Keep in mind the GPS metaphor. You are essentially putting in coordinates for your destination, so you want to certainly keep your destination in mind as you do so. Think of your narrowed topic. You need to choose quotes that exemplify the element that you chose to focus on for your narrowed topic. For instance, if you are writing about characterization in “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” specifically how it works between the the lawyer and Bartleby, you would choose quotes that relate to how the narrator sees Bartleby, characterizing Bartleby and himself in the process. After that, you just need to finish establishing your coordinates by putting the quotes in a sequence that seems appropriate. The main reason I compare this to using a GPS is because of the next step. In the same way that you sort of allow the GPS to move you forward, you allow the quotes to direct your path. It is an automatic process, something that just happens. You write into and out of each quote, and then the essay is basically written for you. What do I mean by writing into and out of each quote? That’s easy. I swear! You do just like I do in our discussion boards. You introduce the quote for a couple of sentences, which means that you basically explain the moment in the story in which the quote appears very succinctly in your own words, and then, after the quote is provided (don’t forget your in-text citation!) explain how it connects back to your thesis. Do that twice per paragraph and Bam! you are done with your essay. I know it is easier said than done, but practice makes perfect.So, for this assignment, I want you to either provide me with your tentative thesis statement, narrowed topic and controlling idea, and then provide either three main points, each with a narrowed topic and a controlling idea, or six quotes. I suggest you do the quotes. In that way, it will just be an expanding of what you have been doing on the discussion boards. I call it “Leading with your Quotes.” I did it all throughout grad school, and I found it extremely efficient.
