I can evaluate sample responses to an essay question and use them to help me write my own comparative response.

Show transcript
Comparative introductions should give equal weighting to both poems and explore the big ideas in both poems. Introductions should use correlative and comparative conjunctions to actively compare poems. Introductions need not focus heavily on biographical details of poets or language devices. An effective essay compares two poems on big ideas in question, weaving in comparison throughout paragraphs. An effective comparative essay explores language, form and structure to support comparisons.
