9th Update

Could we use the "Moon Landing" article in the clinic books for the Advanced SAQ question about identifying bias? 

We may also need to create some test questions for the "theme standard."

I will make sure I come down on time this Wednesday--I came down last Wednesday about halfway through and didn't see you. 

Where I am:

I will be finished with debates and through chapter 5-6 of the book by Thursday.  I have been having the students evaluate the validity of the arguments Gladwell makes and stressing his use of a narrative/testimonials to create an argument.  I have assigned them to create an argument for or against innate ability vs. opportunity.  I have a hard copy of a graphic organizer if you would like to use it, too.  I plan on having the students pracitce the ERQ on Thursday of next week.  We will take a root quiz on Friday and do an activity with theme.  Monday and Tuesday of the following week, we will be practicing the SAQ with a documentary and reading "The Scarlet Ibis" to analye theme--I believe. 

Is this about where you are?
