Charting Domonoske's Text

Goal: Take our understanding of Domonoske's text to the next level with "Charting" and "SOAPSTone"

Agenda: 
Reading
Journal
Vocab Matching
Charting the Text
SOAPSTone Form
Intro to Precis

1. Reading 
On Tuesday you got to peruse the classroom library. We are going to start class today with silent reading. The vibe is Starbucks and we are all relaxed strangers reading in a coffee shop.

2. Journal 
Can high schoolers tell the difference between what's real and what's fake in news? Give me your written opinion.

3. Vocab Matching 
Yesterday one table figured out the vocab matching. We're going to start today collaborating in your new tables to try to put the correct vocab word in the missing piece.

4. Charting the Text
  • Today we will "Chart the Text" which means we will make a table in our journal that questions what the author says versus what the author does in each section of the text. 
  • First, we have to divide the text into chunks. 
  • Start with the intro. Draw a line when you think the intro is done. 
  • Then find the conclusion. Draw a line above where the conclusion begins (hint: it may not just be one paragraph). 
  • Then divide the text where there are logically shifts in the tone (I will help you with this one)
Reminders: 
Have a great weekend. See you Monday.
