WONDERLAND PROJECTS DUE FRIDAY!!Do Now | See, Think, Wonder, Share
Visual Component For every body paragraph of your essay (introduction and conclusion images are optional), there should be an image to accompany it. This image should appear above your paragraph as a visual introduction. Throughout our journey with Alice in Wonderland, we met a variety of characters - the White Rabbit, the Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts, etc. With each character met, we discussed their behaviors, the ways in which Alice responded to them, and finally, what we felt they represented within the context of Alice’s journey. They became symbols and archetypes for us to consider in the world. Your final essay product must contain visual ideas and symbols in the shape of a map that portray any combination of these characters and their relationship to your essay AND Alice’s journey through Wonderland. These images can be self-created or take the form of images and gifs from the internet. If you choose to use images and gifs from the internet, you must create a works cited at the end of your essay and cite all images appropriately. Otherwise, you are plagiarizing.

Studio Time | Goal Setting
What is your goal for your essay today? CEE: Claim, Evidence, Explanation Now that you have created your thesis statement, it is time to start developing the body paragraphs of your essay. Consider your body paragraphs the sites you will stop and consider on your thesis statement map. The most common question I receive from students is how many body paragraphs do I need in my essay?. The answer is, I don’t know. As the writer, you need to decide how many paragraphs it takes to successfully fulfill your thesis statement.
Next provide evidence to support your claim. This evidence must directly relate to your claim, but it should not summarize your claim. Instead, it should support your claim and advance your argument. Finally, provide an explanation of how the evidence supports your claim and supports your overall argument. This explanation also leads your audience into the next paragraph of your essay.
