Answer each of the following using the following format:
a. Answer the question completely. Use key words from the question in your answer. This is your claim!
b. Cite evidence from the text. Use clear, specific examples from the text that support your claim. Use quotations when citing exact words / phrases and cite in MLA format.
c. Explain the quote. Explain the connection between your evidence and your claim.
1. Why is the canoe so valuable to Kino?
2. “Thus it might be that the people of the Gulf trust things of the spirit and things of the imagination, but they do not trust their eyes to show them distance or clear outline or any optical exactness” (8). What does this quote reveal about the “people of the Gulf?”
3. “This was the bed that had raised the King of Spain to be a great power in Europe in past years, had helped to pay for his wars, and had decorated the churches for his soul's sake” (8). Using this quote for reference, what do you think is the author’s attitude (tone) towards Spain and colonization?
4. Why had Juana “...not prayed directly for the recovery of the baby - she had prayed that they might find a pearl with which to hire the doctor to cure the baby…” (8). Using this quote, what can you infer about Juana’s character and religious beliefs?

1. Write out the two questions that the prompt is asking.
2. Write a 3-part thesis statement
3. Write 2 topic sentences for body paragraphs
Write an essay in which you discuss the way Esquivel uses diction and other literary devices to develop her tone.
Tuesday, October 27, 2020
1. Essay Rewrite--thesis and topic sentence focus
To earn full credit on your rewrite, you need to rewrite a 3-part thesis and 4 topic sentences that fully answer the prompt.
2 questions:
1. What are the moments of magical realism?
2. What is Esquivel's attitude towards the main character(s)?
Thesis Statement Example:
Although many authors use imaginative events in their stories (part 1--unarguable fact), Esquivel's use of magical realism when the fire starts in Gertrudis's shower and the tears that affect everyone in Tita's cooking develop her passionate and sympathetic attitude towards these women (part 2--argument that answers the 2 questions or prompt) which shows that moments of magical realism can greatly impact the way that the author conveys characters' personalities. (part 3--larger "so what?" or meaning of this argument)
Topic Sentences:
Esquivel shows her passionate feelings about Gertrudis when the character's shower spontaneously bursts into flames.

Answer each of the following using the following format:
a. Answer the question completely. Use key words from the question in your answer. This is your claim!
b. Cite evidence from the text. Use clear, specific examples from the text that support your claim. Use quotations when citing exact words / phrases and cite in MLA format.
c. Explain the quote. Explain the connection between your evidence and your claim.
1. Why is the canoe so valuable to Kino?
2. “Thus it might be that the people of the Gulf trust things of the spirit and things of the imagination, but they do not trust their eyes to show them distance or clear outline or any optical exactness” (8). What does this quote reveal about the “people of the Gulf?”
3. “This was the bed that had raised the King of Spain to be a great power in Europe in past years, had helped to pay for his wars, and had decorated the churches for his soul's sake” (8). Using this quote for reference, what do you think is the author’s attitude (tone) towards Spain and colonization?
4. Why had Juana “...not prayed directly for the recovery of the baby - she had prayed that they might find a pearl with which to hire the doctor to cure the baby…” (8). Using this quote, what can you infer about Juana’s character and religious beliefs?

2. Write a 3-part thesis statement
3. Write 2 topic sentences for body paragraphs
Write an essay in which you discuss the way Esquivel uses diction and other literary devices to develop her tone.
Tuesday, October 27, 2020
1. Essay Rewrite--thesis and topic sentence focus
To earn full credit on your rewrite, you need to rewrite a 3-part thesis and 4 topic sentences that fully answer the prompt.
2 questions:
1. What are the moments of magical realism?
2. What is Esquivel's attitude towards the main character(s)?
Thesis Statement Example:
Although many authors use imaginative events in their stories (part 1--unarguable fact), Esquivel's use of magical realism when the fire starts in Gertrudis's shower and the tears that affect everyone in Tita's cooking develop her passionate and sympathetic attitude towards these women (part 2--argument that answers the 2 questions or prompt) which shows that moments of magical realism can greatly impact the way that the author conveys characters' personalities. (part 3--larger "so what?" or meaning of this argument)
Topic Sentences:
Esquivel shows her passionate feelings about Gertrudis when the character's shower spontaneously bursts into flames.
