Agenda:

Charting the Text

1. Reading Progress Update 

Complete the READING PROGRESS FORM about the book you were reading in class today.

2. SOAPSTone with your Partner 

• Your first priority is to complete THIS SOAPSTone Form with your assigned partner. 
• We read the text "What Exactly is Media Representation Anyway" in Formative on Friday. 
• Download YOUR OWN COPY so you can look at the text and annotate if necessary. 

3. Charting the Text 

• The author is intentional with the way she crafts her paragraphs - investigate what she is doing to give the reader information.
• Insert a new table in your English Journal. 
• The dimensions should be 3 across, 6 down. 
• Use the model to the right to create your chart (and put the paragraph numbers in just like the model). 
• Use the rhetorical verbs chart in the back of the room to complete the "doing" side. 
• You can work with your partner or alone on this assignment.

Reminders: 

• We're writing about Book #10 and your non-fiction article this Thursday in class. 
• Start thinking about what social group you would find interesting to research.
