 REVIEW your rubric to see what is expected for the
Popplet and Literary Analysis Essay.
 Students will read assigned texts or novels. While
reading the texts or novels students will mark
significant quotes, passages, and words. (If reading
texts, students may use the Side-by-Side app.)
 Students will mark any literary elements or devices
– suspense, humor, dramatic irony, allusion, biases,
etc. Students will review story elements – point of
view, plot, characterization/dialogue, setting, etc.
 Students will open the Popplet Lite app.
 You will be comparing/contrasting ideas and
structures to create a CONTROLLING IDEA. (This
will be the outline for your literary analysis).
 THEN, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS BELOW TO
CREATE A POPPLET. (See my student example for
ideas.)
 Send me the Popplet via email – PDF (document)
Cathy.Gambel@tangischools.org
