I have the same reaction to this as I did with the first one, though I didn't write it then.  Namely, I don't understand what you're trying to say.  This is the teacher forum, so posts here are about teaching.  This looks like an assignment I might do in a class about musical form - like you're submitting homework to this forum.  Are you saying anything about teaching?  The teachers in this forum would certainly know how to analyze a Haydn sonata in this way, so I don't know why you are presenting this. Can you explain?

Well, that went exactly nowhere, like the last time we were given a student-like analysis.

So I will ask the teachers here.  Do you present such a thing to your students?  If so, when, for what purpose, and how do you use it?  If not, why not?  What do you think about that presentation, especially given that this was put in a teacher forum and we can suppose there is some teaching purpose behind it.  (I don't know if there is)
