Wednesday, 28 October

Class complete the "My Path Survey" as part of an English Department Project.

Students turned in their essay outlines and got feedback from Mr. Zartler.

Students identified key words in their thesis statements.

Mr. Zartler gave a lesson on using topic sentence (and thesis statement) key words in the explanation of evidence in body paragraphs. Key take away: A lawyer can't just show the jury a glove. The lawyer has to explain, "If the glove don't fit, you can't convict!" Actually it turns out the quote is, "If the glove don't fit, you must acquit," which is, as Callie pointed out, a better rhyme.

Students had some time to work on developing the explanations for their evidence.

Rough drafts due next class!
