TIMETABLE MODIFICATION AND 2A NOTES

Hello 12s,

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.
