Two of my favorite AP LIT teachers wrote this collaborative text to help AP Lit teachers help their students! Definitely a must read for anyone teaching analysis and composition! It definitely gave me some great ideas to help students strengthen their writing this year.

Super useful - I didn't read the last 2 chapters as it wasn't necessary for me, but the rest were filled with great strategies that can be used in any English class, tbh.
