In an attempt to redouble our efforts around structuring our writing, doing strong literary analysis, and engaging in meaningful discourse, I am altering the schedule for this unit. Please see the revised schedule below; please let me know of any conflicts you may see ASAP.
Feb. 7:
-Hand in 2B
-review student samples for positive examples of formatting and analysis
- finish viewing the film.
- Consider, using critical theory, Is Kate Tamed? What does it mean to be tamed? Did anyone need taming?
- Homework:Prepare quotes to support your view on whether Kate is or is not tamed.
Feb. 11:
- Focus question #3?
- What does it mean to be 'tamed'? Work on a definition.
- Prep. Debate. For next class
Feb. 13:
- Class debate on essay topic.
Happy Family Day Long weekend.
Feb. 19:
- Final questions/discussions
- Create essay outlines to be used on test next block. Feb. 19.
Feb. 21:
- In-class Essay test. (open book with brief outline)
Notes on 2A:
- tag
- Answer the question
(embed it and use the same vocab.)
- Review the role of an
introductory paragraph (lay out the plan)
- What about what Kate
wants? Does?( Gender/power status quo, even among modern people, is concerning here,)
-Link each assertion back
to thesis.
- Prove what you say! If
Kate likes it, how can we know? Text and critical theory.
- Don’t declare what you
can’t prove/suggest with analysis. Equivocation is often needed: "It is reasonable to assume that" ... or "her
silence may be suggestive of..."
- Cite ALL SOURCES for your researced IDEAS or WORDS.
