"PERKS" VIDEO/CLAIM-REASON-EVIDENCE

SENIORS: We finished viewing The Perks of Being a Wallflower and then discussed the differences between the book and movie.  Make sure you bring your copies of the book on Monday so we can return them to the library.

SOPHOMORES: There can be some confusion as to what is meant by the terms CLAIM, REASON, and EVIDENCE; they are not synonymous.  Put the following definitions in your notebook, under the title Claim, Reason, Evidence:
         Claim: The thesis or the argument.
         Reason: The support for the claim.
         Evidence: The support for the reason. 

Underneath these terms, create the title Jeremy Irons and find an example of each from yesterday's transcript.  Your work should look like this:
                                                           Jeremy Irons
                         Claim:
                         Reason:
                         Evidence:

Also, we finished the handouts from yesterday: the Anticipation Guide and the chart work.  These handouts were turned in at the end of the period.

Tuesday, Feb. 3, is Articulation!  That means you will get a presentation from the counselors about your class choices for next year.
