Controlling Idea worksheet
Above is the link to the worksheet we filled out in class to prepare to write the controlling idea essay on Sojourner Truth's "Ain't I a Woman?" and "Untie His Hands" by Frederick Douglass.
Remember the procedure/purpose of the controlling idea essay is:
*To read both passages and develop a thesis on the given topic
*Give relevant textual examples and citations with sources (NOT PLOT SUMMARY)
*Explain how each piece relates to the thesis
*Discuss literary elements or techniques and how they help they add to meaning
