Unlocking FRQs: Prose, Poetry, and Whole Text Analysis with Wuthering Heights
January 27 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm CST
This webinar will offer ways to strengthen students’ analytical skills across all Free Response Question types. Using a thematically linked mini-unit, we will explore how a single pairing of texts can build interpretive thinking and writing skills. Participants will walk through a close-reading lesson built around Catherine’s “I am Heathcliff” passage from Wuthering Heights (Ch. 9) paired with Emily Brontë’s poem “Stanzas.” Teachers will leave with ready-to-use lessons as well as a few student sample responses.
