Compose a formal essay with the focus of completing an analysis of the image by Ester Hernandez.
This essay must be three to four paragraphs and thesis driven. The essay needs to demonstrate a sound pattern of organization. It should follow the conventions of formal academic writing.
Think back to the work we have been doing with analytical thinking. Your thesis should reflect your analytical perspective and then the body paragraphs should use logic, specific details, and good transitions to develop your main idea.
Some tips to help guide you as you complete the task…
• Take words seriously. When you compose an analysis, hold writers to a high standard because their ideas may have consequences. Good notions deserve to be identified and applauded. And bad ones should be ferreted out, exposed, and sent packing.
• Make strong claims about texts. Of course, you cannot make claims about texts until you know them inside out. The need for close examination may seem self-evident, but we blow through most of what we read (and see) without much thought. Serious critical analysis does just the opposite; it slows down every notion and magnifies them for careful study.
Mine text for evidence. Use the words and images as evidence for your own claims
