Your journal entries should consist of a thoughtful response to each essay. Providing a thoughtful response means more than just writing a summary. Instead you may ask questions; discuss how this work relates to other literature; reflect on how the reading relates to situations in your life. Discuss the style and writer’s voice. Aim for these responses to be approximately 150-200 words in length (rough guideline). D.
