Objective:  I can contrast samples of rhetorical analyses for SAT scores of #2, #3, and #4.

BW:  Complete yesterday’s assignment by underlining the details in each of the three supporting paragraphs of the sample #4 score and highlighting each explanation showing how the student shows the connection between the author’s evidence and its affect on the reader.

Activities:

  1.  Promethean Board:  Make connections between the underlined/highlighted sample #4 score and the SAT explanation of the scoring.
  2. Review the explanation of the scoring for the #2 and #3 samples.  Draw contrasts between all three samples.
  3. Review talk-to-the-text approach for the article opposed to gun control measures.
  4. Continue annotating this article for the first chunk.  Use this format:  box or circle unknown words or short phrases; underline golden lines(main points); question/answer parts of the passage in a meaningful way.
  5. Think Pair/Share: If time allows, student will annotate the next chunk or two in pairs.
