Writing+an+Argument

We took notes on elements of argumentation for a daily grade (see picture below)
 * Wed/Thurs (11/30 and 12/1)**

[|We also read]and [|watched "I Have a Dream]" and identified the general claim, MLK's point of view, and together we identified what he was trying to prove or show in his argument. Below is an example of what I wrote for MLK's speech. Next, I gave students a copy of [|Robert F. Kennedy's speech]"On the Death of Martin Luther King, Jr.," watched the [|Youtube version of his speech], and had students individually identify the same elements. A grade was taken on this as well.

On Friday, 12/2, we read and analyzed "In Praise of the F Word," written by Mary Sherry. Any students who were absent will need to get a handout from me as I do not have an electronic file of the exact handout I passed out.
