Honors English 12 (G block)
- You're doing a "style and voice" study. You picked your favorite College Essay from the packet I gave you--the one that has the best "voice" in your opinion. You're going to look at specific words, phrases, and other choices the writer makes to establish ATTITUDE, PERSONALITY and CHARACTER. Style and voice are closely intertwined, so you may consider some stylistic choices that lead to a strong narrative voice. Write an analysis of the ways the writer establishes voice--BE SPECIFIC. Then, choose one that you don't necessarily like the voice of, and talk about why. (The writing guide is online if you want to refer to it--you can find the link from the high school website.)
