For next Monday, you will write three literary paragraphs about irony in Lord of the Flies. The first paragraph will discuss how irony is used in relation to an object in the novel. The second paragraph will be used to discuss how irony is used in relation to a character (his dialogue or actions). The third paragraph will discuss how irony is used in relation to an event. In each paragraph, you will used well-integrated quotations that are properly cited. Each paragraph must be clear, proofread and written in ink (or typed).
Remember, literary compositions are compositions about the literature you have read. They will be written as follows:
- in third person (do not use "I", "we", "us", or "you")
- in present tense
- without contractions (use "cannot" not "can't", etc.)
- with proper formatting
- in formal language (avoid informal language like "kids" and "freaking out")
