The Button Trick: FRQ 2 2022 AP Literature (Octopus)

Description

In this writing workshop video, I walk viewers through a step-by-step process of constructing FRQ 2from the 2022 AP Literature & Composition Exam (Octopus).

But the kicker – to ensure that the pesky line of reasoning stays intact, I model how to perform the Button Trick – the best way ever to teach a student how to stay cogent in their writing.

Per usual, I “Bob Ross” a number of times how to write the introductory paragraph with both of my thesis templates (Declarative/Inverted) — and I do the same for the body paragraphs (Syllogistic Method).

As such, the entire essay is modeled and demystified.
