Presentation transcript:

Bellwork #1: SW view Frankenstein and compare/contrast the novel to the movie. SW discuss paper guidelines for the upcoming writing workshop. Create a double-bubble for Frankenstein the novel and Frankenstein the movie. Identify 5 similarities and 5 differences seen on each side. Don’t forget your FOR and question.

Bellwork #2: SW discuss proper set up of an introduction paragraph of an essay and critique samples. SW apply the guidelines and create their own intro. SW share what they created with another classmate and get feedback. When responding to a prompt, 3 things need to be present in your introduction: 1)Hook (Catchy Phrase or Situational) Quotes from important people (cited) Statistics from a source (cited) Creative catchy phrases ( don’t use clichés!) No questions or broad statements. 2)Claim: Essay Topic + Opinion + Three Reasons(If you have 3 prongs) 3)Definition of Prompt: Some people say…other people say

Write down the following paragraph, then make changes to improve this introduction paragraph: Prompt: Whose to blame for the deaths and lives that were altered and changed forever by this creature? Frankenstein is a novel based upon the regeneration of life. Frankenstein is a great novel. I am about to talk to you about who is to blame for this creation. Victor Frankenstein is responsible for his creation and the fact that he didn’t speak out after the creature was loose in the world was even worse; although, some people feel that the creature was responsible for his own actions and needed to be held responsible for them.

Write down the following paragraph. Is it good, needs improvement, explain your thoughts: “I beheld the wretch-the miserable monster whom I had created” (43). Victor Frankenstein says it himself, it was his creation, his responsibility, and he took none! He longed to regenerate life after it was gone, yet in his creation he felt disgust, and then abandoned it. Victor Frankenstein is responsible for his creation’s actions and the affect his abandonment had on him; although, some people feel that the monster is responsible for his own actions.

Bellwork #3: SW discuss guidelines and proper set up of the counter argument/rebuttal. SW look at and discuss/revise counterarguments and rebuttals. SW create their counterargument and rebuttal and share with a partner to get feedback. Counterarguments/rebuttals usually follow the introduction, because the claim leads into this POV. You need evidence/quote from the text to support this with an explanation. However, you may place this paragraph where you choose within the body paragraphs (1 St or 3 rd ). You wouldn’t start with one of your points for the body paragraph, then discuss the counterargument/rebuttal, and then end with another point you make. It makes your thoughts look scrambles and all over the place.

Counterargument/Rebuttal Sentence Stems: Counterargument: Some people feel that… The point of view of others is… Rebuttal: What ____ fails to consider is _____. This assertion/position is problematic because_________. While this view is popular, it is overlooking the fact that _________.

Write down the following paragraph, then make changes to improve or make this counterargument/rebuttal paragraph stronger: Some people feel that the creature is responsible for his own actions. The creature is aware of what is right and wrong after learning from others and even started to question his existence and what it meant. “My person was hideous and my stature gigantic. What does this mean? Who was I? What was I? Whence did I come?” (109). What this position fails to consider is that the creature wouldn’t be feeling this way, if he wasn’t abandoned by his creator.

Bellwork #4: SW create their tree map, the rest of their body paragraphs for their essay, and discuss and share out with a partner. SW start to edit with a peer editing worksheet other student’s essays. What is the easiest part of the writing process for you? The hardest? What strategy or strategies do you use that helps? Explain. Remember: The rest of your body paragraphs should follow your claim points and in that order. For Example: Some people feel that the creature is responsible for his own actions; although, Victor Frankenstein created and abandoned his own creation. So, in this way:1 st body: Counterargument/rebuttal 2 nd body: Victor Frankenstein created the creature 3 rd body: Victor Frankenstein abandoned the creature.

Bellwork #5: SW create their conclusion to their essay and share out with a partner. SW conduct a final editing of another student’s essay with the checklist. SW write their final paper for homework or type it out. Conclusions: Transition words: Essentially Ultimately In essence Remember: Restate the claim Final thoughts (3-5 sentences).

Describe your “Utopia.” What does it look like? What makes it your ideal place? Explain.

Bellwork #7: SW work with their groups on their expert folders. SW individually read their articles, T2T on concepts learned, and apply them to individual thinking maps. SW Share their findings with their groups and add new learning's to the group circle map. What new learning's did you find out about “Utopias?” What does “Utopia” actually mean? How is this ironic?
