One line in the play states: "The old seer had eyes." Discuss the idea of sight and blindness in the play. Provide specific examples from the text to support your conclusions.
In Oedipus the King, Sophocles uses blindness and sight as metaphors. Tiresias a physically blind man has a clearer vision than the king Oedipus. Tiresias states "So, you mock my blindness? Let me tell you this, you with your precious eyes, you’re blind to the corruption of your life, to the house you live in, those you live with” (Sophocles 470-475). Blindness is used as a metaphor for the loss of identity, power, and hope. Meanwhile, a clear vision is used as a metaphor for knowledge and insight. The protagonist Oedipus is "Blind" "You have not truth. You’re blind. Blind in your eyes. Blind in your ears. Blind in your mind” (Sophocles 40). The truth holds power, a power only those with clear sight can see, in the end, Oedipus’s downfall is his blindness, and he ends up being powerless.

Your writing is precise and straightforward, and you back up your arguments with explicit quotes from the book. You correctly note the play's usage of metaphors involving blindness and sight, and you explain how these metaphors are utilized to illustrate various ideas.
Here are some ideas for enhancements:
You may go into further detail on the various ideas that blindness and sight stand for. You might talk about how sight can stand in for knowledge and comprehension while blindness can stand in for ignorance. You might also talk about how the play's overall meaning is influenced by the metaphorical use of sight and blindness.
You can claim, for instance, that the play conveys the idea that true knowledge can only be attained by experience and that individuals who are unable to see clearly because of pride or self-interest will inevitably fail. Overall, your writing is excellent, and you clearly comprehend how Oedipus the King uses blindness and sight as metaphors.

Miss Saunders, a helper of Maleeka, helped her realize that her face means something to the world. She isn't just someone that other students get to pick on, she is someone who overcomes Charlese's bullying with the help of Miss Saunders.
Explanation: Conclusion:
Reading that claim informed me about the effects of bullying and that things get better in the end when you tell someone about what is going on with them. Maleeka went to Miss Saunders who helped her overcome Charlese's bullying. This argument is supposed to inform and persuade readers to let an adult know where there is something going on in school or at home. It informs them that it is okay to let someone know instead of handling the problem themselves.
