Friday, April 24

Target: to create an evidence-based claim about the character Addie Bundren, after reading her chapter in the novel.

1. Who was Addie Bundren?  As you carefully reread her chapter, pull out three related details and put them into this Evidence-Based Claim chart.  (You will have to make a copy first.) 

2. Tell me what each of them means and why they are important signifiers of who she was.

3. Make those relationships explicit by discussing the connections between the details.

4. NOW--this is INDUCTION, remember?  MAKE A CLAIM/CONCLUSION/INFERENCE about Addie based on these details.  Remember a claim is NOT a statement of obvious fact, it should INSIGHTFUL, and the product of your critical thinking.  GO DEEP!

5. When you have finished, share your doc with ONE PERSON in your group (partner up), and ask them to make comments on your claim or your commentary.  Share with ME when you are done: jenlamonte@gmail.com

READ TO 197 (or around 210) in the new books for MONDAY.
