Advanced Analytical Compositions & Literary Device Critiques

Language & Literature

Your child writes structural, multi-page analytical papers that break down how an author utilizes extended allegories or historical commentary to send a deeper message.

In real life

Your child writes a multi-page essay on Animal Farm, arguing that the barnyard is a scaffold for the Russian Revolution. They track how each animal maps to a historical figure and what Orwell is really warning about.
