Friday: FINAL ASSESSMENT ON "APOLOGY"

Today you will write your final assessment of the skills we have been practicing the entire unit.

HERE are the ELO's for this assignment we reviewed on Monday:
3) Write interior paragraphs that use claims, supported by evidence and commentary.



1) Paraphrase the author’s words in order to support my claim.


2) Introduce, use, and cite evidence properly that support my claim


3) Present a reasoned commentary of the details   




Here is a model of what your final writing should look like:  http://odelleducation.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Written-EBC-Model-Plato.pdf

You can choose any claim you like; it can be one you make on your own, or it be one that I have given you this week (see Thursday's handout).  The goal is to see if it can be broken into TWO PARTS, like the model, so you have two paragraphs of support to write.

Each interior paragraph should have:

A CLAIM

EVIDENCE (from the last half of the speech)

COMMENTARY that explains what the details/evidence means to you and how it SHOWS the claim you are making.

If you do not finish today, you have a few options: 

Complete the one page writing over the weekend, OR come to RTI to finish with my help next week.

It is due by FRIDAY, May 14.
