Description
This resource introduces AP® English Literature and other upper level literature students to prose analysis of various short stories. This lesson, exploring SET 2.A - How textual details reveal a setting, includes slideshow notes and a student handout with various excerpts. The excerpts include:
- “1408" by Stephen King
- "Young Goodman Brown" by Nathaniel Hawthorne
- "When Mr. Pirzada Came to Dine" by Jhumpa Lahiri
- "Dead Men's Path" by Chinua Achebe
- "The Sniper" by Liam O'Flaherty
- "The Passing of Grandison" by Charles W. Chestnutt
The lesson continues with analysis of a "Girl" by Jamaica Kincaid and an AP® Lit-style paragraph prompt of Alice Walker's "Everyday Use." A note sheet is also available to align with the AP® Daily video lesson on this standard, which I recommend for opening the lesson.
In preparation for online learning, the lesson has also been converted to Google Slides for use in Google Classroom. The lesson comes with fillable text boxes for student work, plus instructions on how to make copies and use the resource on digital platforms.
This lesson is bundled in my Short Story Boot Camp, completing the requirements of AP® Lit Unit 1 (Short Fiction I).
