SKILL: OutliningSKILL: OutliningLast week we worked on a outline (a skeleton or summary of what is going in your essay and in what order)

We are going to practice the process of outlining for a timed essay.

How do you think our timed essay outline will differ from the one we completed last week?

Using the Structure you came up with:Using the Structure you came up with:

My structure:

Under Pressure!Under Pressure!You know that the claim/thesis goes first

You know that the call to action will probably go last

In between is the evidence, and after a piece of evidence there is always a warrant/analysis

There might be a counterargument example and rebuttal thrown in!

Quick OutlinesQuick OutlinesWhen doing a timed essay, try to spend 5 minutes in the beginning writing down your organization.

DO NOT NEED COMPLETE SENTENCES

MY EXAMPLE:MY EXAMPLE:

PROMPT: Should the process for firing teachers be made easier?

YOU TRY!YOU TRY!

Should students be given a 4 day school week?

HW:HW:Put your WoW sticky on the pink board

Turn in your notebook with AoW #5

HW for THURSDAY: Finish your paired creative outlines and your explanation of why your structure is effective

THURSDAY: IN CLASS WRITE #2 (Only midterm and final will go into your exam category, all the others will be practices that go into your participation score)

Debrief & HWDebrief & HWPass up the paired outlines & explanations

HW for this weekend: AoW#6 (annotations & responses to questions)

NOTES ON YESTERDAY’S OUTLINES:*Be SPECIFIC with your evidence!!!!

*REBUTTAL = what you say back to the counterargument (shouldn’t support C.A.)

For the following ICW, make sure you do a 5 min. outline! I will give you points for doing this step!

In Class Writing #2In Class Writing #2Our cherished notions of what is equal and what is fair frequently conflict. Democracy presumes that we are all created equal; competition proves we are not, or else every contest would end in a tie. We talk about a level playing field, but it is difficult to make conditions equal for everyone without being unfair to some.

Adapted from Nancy Gibbs, "Cool Running"

Assignment: Is it possible for a society to be fair to everyone? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.
