1. Review the assignment guidelines for the Literary Analysis Essay. Does the essay appear to meet the minimum requirements for the assignment (length, topic, sources, etc)?

2. Does the essay include an introduction that provides some background and context for the analysis?

3. Identify the thesis of the essay.  Does it make a clear and focused claim about the story? 

4. Organization:  Does the essay draft have a clear introduction, conclusion and multiple body paragraphs?  Does each paragraph address one issue or idea, and relate back to the thesis?   

5. Does the author use topic sentences and transitions to guide you through the essay?   At any point do you become confused about the purpose or direction of the essay?

6. Does the essay integrate both quotations from the story and quotations from secondary sources?  Do the quotations seem relevant and credible to you?

7. Sometimes students get caught up in researching the author’s background or historical events and they forget that the primary purpose is to analyze the primary source. As you read the essay, does the author clearly tie all the research back to an analysis of the story?

8. Check the citations.  Can the source for each quotation or paraphrase be easily found on the works cited page?  Are the citations in correct MLA format? Has the writer incorporated three secondary sources?

9. Do you notice any recurring grammatical errors, formatting errors or other problems with the essay?

10. Give your peer any other advice for revising the essay.
