No secondary sources are to be used in this essay. This essay is not to be written in the first person, "I." Case Assignment Case 3 is a social commentary literary analysis. In an organized and well-supported essay, discuss Ray Bradbury’s, “All Summer in a Day” as a social commentary. What is the author’s message and to whom is it directed? Is it an important message and if so, what may have prompted Bradbury to write? Using a rhetorical means to make a point is typically done for awareness and to encourage action or change by informing the reader of an issue while appealing to one’s emotions and sense of responsibility. The first person "I" is not used in a formal essay. No secondary sources are to be used in the process of writing this first essay; it is to be entirely written based on one's point of view and supported with body points and details.

Please be sure that essays include only the thoughts, words, and ideas of the writer. Essays must be double-spaced in Times or Times New Roman font (12 cpi) with standard one-inch margins and no less than 700 words of text. A well-organized essay has a beginning, middle, and an end. The beginning, or introduction, should include an opening sentence to grab your reader’s attention. Follow the opening sentence with a very brief synopsis of the short story. Be sure to always include the author’s full name in the introduction of the essay. After that first instance, only the surname is used. The last sentence of the introduction is the thesis statement. The thesis states the main point of the essay, which in this case, would be a literary analysis of symbolism and theme in Bradbury’s short story. A well-supported essay includes supporting points, details, and examples. For this essay, you must decide the best way to organize the body of the essay. Will you have a few paragraphs for symbolism and a few that address theme? Will you divide the body of your essay into three paragraphs? Six? In any case, each body paragraph must support (explain) your interpretation (analysis) of the short story. Each body paragraph should begin with a topic sentence that states the main point of the paragraph. The conclusion typically summarizes the main points of the essay and/or closes with a lasting impression that connects the reader to their world. You may wish to offer a reason as to why Bradbury’s short story continues to be read in educational settings after so many years or why the story’s themes are especially topical in our society today. Be sure to proofread your essay and edit for proper grammar, punctuation, diction (word choice), and spelling, as errors in sentence skills will lower a final grade. A grade will be determined based on the Module 3 Case expectations and the Trident 7/29/24, 7:05 PM Case - ENG201 Survey of American Literature (2024JUN24FT-1) https://tlc.trident.edu/d2l/le/content/214050/viewContent/5388911/View 2/3 Privacy Policy | Contact University General Education rubric for English found in the course syllabus.
