Presentation transcript:

Computers are needed today. Type 2-Use your graphic organizer (T chart) to answer this question in your notebook: What is the main idea of the story we read yesterday and how do you know? Circle the main idea and underline at least two supporting details you include in your type two. (Four minutes) Use TDEDEC. (Teacher will re- explain TDEDEC as needed.)

Do you have similar or different details to support your main idea? How do you know these details are sufficient and relevant? What opinion can you, as a group, form about this story? Are there adequate facts to support your group’s opinion? (4 mins)

Now that you have been able to agree on an opinion you need facts. These facts also need to be sufficient and relevant. To help you I have provided two articles for your group to review and one video clip. From the three I need you to create a poster about Jesse Owens with the opinion at the top and three supporting details shown. Under each supporting detail please explain how it is relevant and sufficient. (13 minutes)

Questions to think about as we see others posters: Are the supporting details cited? Are the supporting details facts? What counter argument might you have? (6 minutes)

First, identify your opinion. That is the focus (main idea) of your paper. Use TDEDEC throughout your paper for it! How do authors create texts using this method? Look over the three articles and write down in two sentences what similarities you see between the three articles. (3 minutes)

How does opinion and facts work together? How might this help you in a debate with someone? (2 mins)

Imagine you can write a letter to your ultimate hero. Much like this person wrote about his hero to us, now YOU will get a chance to tell your ULTIMATE hero WHY they are your hero. Tonight choose your ultimate hero. Create an opinion statement about them. Example: Ultimate Hero: Michelle Kwan Opinion Statement: Michelle Kwan is the most graceful and skilled ice skater of all time.

Tomorrow you will use your homework from tonight and conduct research on that hero for facts supporting your opinion. Then you will write a letter to your hero telling them your opinion of them. Maybe we can even mail some! Your hero must be researchable. Please choose someone specific and that you can do research on.
