Agenda 5 min: organize table folders (return your folder if you borrowed it), turn in portfolios! Questions about the test before we take it/issues with review packet? 45 minutes: test (you will need a calculator, ruler, and your confidence table) Intro to annotation & writing claim-evidence- reasoning paragraphs

Annotation As you read through articles in this class, it can be helpful to annotate (mark) the text for specific things. We will take 10 minutes right now to read & annotate this article. Box: Key Content Vocabulary Triangle: Other Difficult Words Double Underline: Main Ideas Single Underline: Evidence to Support Main Ideas ?: Confusing Information Concl: Major Conclusions

Main Ideas/Evidence... What are some main ideas in this reading? What evidence backs up your main ideas? What do you think is the value in finding patterns like this to make predictions based on data (as opposed to a wild guess)?

For 6 films in particular, 99% accuracy; 23 films with 90% accuracy, 70 with 70% accuracy or above Specific films predicted (Iron Man 2, Toy Story 3, Alice in Wonderland, Inception)

Claim-Evidence-Reasoning Claim:  A statement that answers the original question  Usually just one sentence Evidence:  All of the data that supports your claim  Not all data is considered evidence  The more relevant evidence, the better your claim is supported Reasoning:  Explains why the data you chose counts as evidence  Acts as a 'conclusion'  Should be a few sentences in length

Example: Explain why greenhouse walls can be constructed of glass or clear plastic but not wood or metal. Neither wood nor metal will work as the walls of a greenhouse. Wood and metal do not allow visible light to pass through them. Light can pass through both clear glass and plastic, but lower-energy thermal radiation cannot. A greenhouse warms up when light energy is absorbed by materials inside that can radiate that thermal energy back into the greenhouse as they heat up. If the materials of the walls blocks light energy from getting inside the greenhouse, then it cannot become trapped thermal energy and the greenhouse will not warm up. Therefore, wood and metal would not work for the construction of greenhouses.

Example: The Temptations are the best band ever. They have a song I really like. Therefore, the Temptations are the best band ever. Why might this be a bad argument?
