A type of writing AP Language and Composition teachers like to ask you to do for a book during summer. SOAPS stands for subject, occasion, audience, purpose, and speaker. Subject - What is this about? Occasion- What happened to cause this to be said/written? Why was it recorded? Audience- Who is the intended audience? Purpose- Why was this spoken/written? What purpose does it serve? Speaker- Who is the speaker or author? All in all, SOAPS gives students hell.
