The weekly journal response is designed to get your ideas for the essay going forward. Each week, I will have a post in blackboard for you to post the journal. The requirements are listed below, and each week, I will add a few questions that might give you some guidance in the response. I do expect evidence from the text to be used, but the response is not a formal essay. Be specific about the topic as you write, but do not worry about connecting all the ideas as you would in an essay.
•The response should be 1-2 pages, double spaced, and formatted according to MLA format (good for practice)
•It should cover a specific element of the work being discussed, not the whole work,
•The response should incorporate specific evidence from the text
•The writing should be at a collegiate level
While it does not need to be an essay, but the more focus you provide, the more helpful it will be for you.
There is a sample provided below for you to look at.

Match the term to the correct example. 1. allusion juliet: else would i tear the cave where echo lies, / and make her airy tongue more hoarse than 2. imagery chorus: that fair for which love groan’d for and would die, / with tender juliet match’d, is now not fair. 3. personification friar laurence: therefore love moderately; long love doth so; / too swift arrives as tardy as too slow. 4. foreshadowing romeo: the brightness of her cheek would shame those stars / as daylight doth a lamp.

Reread this portion of the excerpted text from common sense. men of passive tempers look somewhat lightly over the offenses of britain, and, still hoping for the best, are apt to call out, come, we shall be friends again for all this. but examine the passions and feelings of mankind. bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me, whether you can hereafter love, honor, and faithfully serve the power that hath carried fire and sword into your land? if you cannot do all these, then are you only deceiving yourselves, and by your delay bringing ruin upon posterity. your future connection with britain, whom you can neither love nor honor, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a relapse more wretched than the first. what key concept about the relationship between an abusive government and its citizens does paine want readers to understand? use evidence from the text to support your response. your response should be one to two complete paragraphs.
