Thoreau “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For” annotations Frontier précis (3 pieces)

Option 1: Free- write for 5 minutes Option 2: Yoga in the hallway

Have a conversation with the people around you Talking points: BOTH Emerson AND Thoreau Which essay did you like better? Why? Discuss the subject of both essays, and then discuss the different thesis statement made by each author. How do the authors construct their arguments? What did you find effective, and what do you not understand? What is our responsibility to nature?*** Collaboratively – make a bullet-point précis pre-write for BOTH essays. Discuss your ideas as you work!

Carson: From Silent Spring annotations due Mon. 12/15/14 Oates “Against Nature” annotations due Tues. 12/16/14 Nature précis (3 pieces) due Thurs. 12/18/14
