Analyze Two Essays

In this discussion, you will practice summary and response writing by sharing your analysis of two essays with your classmates.

These essays are informal narrations of personal experience, yet they differ in style and subject:

  • “The Struggle to Be an All-American Girl,” page 19.
  • “How Male and Female Students Use Language Differently,” page 191.

  • Compare the two essays in structure and style by considering the following:
    • What do you notice about the way each essay begins and concludes, the order of the paragraphs, and the vocabulary used?
