Lesson Recap - Writing Claims

Notice and Note




Compare your claim to the claim on this list. How deep is your thinking?
Stronger ideas from class today




H/W  
  • (optional) Write a claim about the last independent book you read.  (You will have 10 mins. to  write this in class tomorrow.  (G/H Wed) Copy your claim here. 
  • Read for 20 mins and keep your reading log updated. You will be assessed on whether you can keep a reading log  on Friday.
1st Writing GRADE
You will have to turn in by the end of Friday's class a reflection piece on 'what you have learned so far in RLA.  This piece will be graded on your claim and the evidence that you use to support your claim. (More on this on Wed.) You will be given time this week to work on this piece in class. I am telling you in advance, so you have time this week to start collecting notes on:
1) What you have learned
2) How can you prove that you have learned it

Also be thinking: What format do you want to use to present your learning. e.g. a letter, a news broadcast, a lyric poem, others?

    I learned how to make a good claim on any book. what you do is you ask yourself questions on the claim until you can't ask any more, than add the questions' answers to the claim.
