Learning Target 7.8

Today we practiced Target 7.8
RL 7.8 Trace and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, assessing whether the reasoning is sound and the evidence is relevant and sufficient to support the claims
Kudos to Yasmin - the only student to recognize use of pathos in the images!

Analysis




Writing Classes
Reminders: Make sure you have completed your research using the sources from yesterday's post.
Parallel Structure Assessment is tomorrow. Make sure you have used this site.
Try this exercise: Parallelism (write Correct or 'Incorrect')

Also on the test:
  • Can you name/write the x4 types of subjects and predicates?
  • How do you spot opening and delayed adjectives/adverbs in sentences?

Now Jackson - can you write examples of each one of them? Or recognize each one of them?

I just did the Parallel structure test and got 81%. Is that good? And what type of grade do we need on the test to bring our over all grade higher? Can any one answer if we have a debate tomorrow

Hey Mr. Buxton, How you said on the blog can you recognised Opening and Delaying adjectives and adverbs, I found a Prezi that will help anyone last minute to help recognise them. Here it is http://prezi.com/r-uqdq-gkp1m/opening-adjectives-and-adverbs-delayed-adjectives-and-adverbs/
It helped me last minute

Can we use our own sources for the computer argument? Or do we have to use the sources the Mr. Buxton found?

I think I found Parallel Structure in the One to One laptop program is not silver bullet. (An evaluation of Michigan's one-to-one laptop program found similarly mixed results. It examined eight matched pairs of schools and found higher achievement in four laptop schools, lower achievement in three, and no difference in the final pair (Lowther, Strahl, Inan, & Bates, 2007).)

Anya, I think we can as along as it is a credible source. Hope that helped.
