Presentation transcript:

Critical Thinking You will only have one minute and one chance on this one. Bring your answer up to me. If you don’t get it correct, no second chances on this one. No talking or cheating.

If teapot A holds 32 ounces of tea, about how many ounces does teapot B hold?

The Answer: 16 ounces (about half of pot A). The amount of tea that can be kept within each pot is determined by the height of the spout opening. The tea level cannot rise above the spout opening since any extra tea would merely spill out from the spout. A simple visual estimate would conclude that the spout of teapot B is approximately half the height of that of teapot A, therefore providing only half of the capacity, or 16 ounces.

Goals for the Day I can use a rhetorical precis to analyze the rhetorical situation of a text. I can utilize a variety of strategies to help me comprehend difficult texts. I can analyze and explain how an author uses rhetorical strategies to develop their argument.

So you didn’t understand the text….

Comprehension Strategies Annotate the text – this includes trying to figure out words you don’t know from context and then looking them up to check whether you were correct. Take it one sentence at a time. Use grammar – break down the sentence to the basics. Pay close attention to conjunctions and transitions Remove non-essential phrases and clauses initially, then add them back in one by one. Ask questions – lots of questions Use graphic organizers if necessary Read it OUT LOUD! Discuss it with a friend.

Quick Quiz When you finish, write your precis and your rhetorical analysis paragraph. DUE BY THE END OF CLASS: Turn in your rhetorical device books and be sure you’ve completed the rhetorical device log. Albert assignment - Dwight Eisenhower text DUE BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT: Journal – Controversy of the Week topic. 4 Rhetorical Analysis Paragraph from the JFK text.

Homework – Due Monday Annotation Assignment Turn in Annotated Text Complete the Precis Write a rhetorical analysis paragraph Read pages 81-92 in your textbook – bring book to class Monday. Come with any questions about Rhetorical Analysis

Adjusting Understanding You may: Work with me on a variety of skills beginning with parts of a sentence.
