AP Literature and Composition April 20, 2009 Ms. Cares

AGENDA: 1.Approaching prose sections on the AP exam: Guiding questions to focus your reading. 2.Wilfred Owen’s “S.I.W.” - Where are we? Review the poem and the multiple choice answers. 3.Practice Examining a Short Prose Section: excerpt from Malcolm Lowry’s Ultramarine. Homework: Finish examining Ultramarine and answering the related questions.

AP Literatue Exam - Take Notes Testing Date: May 7th, 8:00am Time: 3 hours Section I: Multiple Choice (60 minutes) - 45% of the total score. Four or five prose and poetry passages with questions per passage. Section II: Essays (120 minutes) - 55% of score. -Analysis of poetry (40 minutes) -Analysis of prose (40 minutes) -Open Essay (40 minutes)

AP Prose Sections On the AP Literature Exam, you will see 3-4 different prose excerpts: -2-3 prose sections within the multiple choice section of the test. -1 prose section for a focused essay. We must, therefore, identify strategies for approaching these sections.

Overarching Goals for Prose: As with the poetry sections, there are certain questions that will help focus your reading of the prose excerpts. For the multiple choice sections, your goal is to create a verifiable reading of the excerpt. POE. For the essay section, you should read with the goal of creating a specific and supportable reading of the text.

Prose Section Approach: 1.What is the meaning of the work? A. What is the literal, face- value meaning of the work? B. What feeling (or feelings) does the work evoke?

Prose Section Approach continued… 2. How does the author get that meaning across? A. What are the important images in the work and what do those images suggest? B. What specific words or short phrases produce the strongest feelings? C. What elements are in opposition?

Applying this approach: 1.Read the excerpt from Malcolm Lowry’s Ultramarine. 2.Working in pairs (though you must record your own answers on a separate sheet of paper), respond to the guiding questions just provided.
