2 Assignments for this Unit Non-Fiction Articles: We ll use a non-fiction article to begin to look at persuasive writing and how it works. For the article, you will actively read by making comments in the margins and questioning the author s arguments. 6+1 Trait Writing: This unit will begin our study and incorporation of the 6+1 traits of writing. We ll look at Ideas, Organization, Conventions, and Word Choice. Each will have a short presentation, practice writing, and then grading papers. If you miss the presentation, you must view it on my site before the next class. In addition, you will have to complete any of the exercises given in the presentation. Write Assignments: We will have short, 5-minute bursts of writing in class to prepare our brain to think or to express thoughts we have. These assignments are quick, and you will receive full credit if you write for the entire time. Use these to prepare understanding or expression of a concept from class. Micro-writing Assignments: These are short writing pieces that will focus on a particular writing trait to help students practice powerful writing. First Formal Essay: After reading the article, Is Google Making Us Stupid? you will write a 500-word reaction paper to answer the question: How Does Our Internet Usage Affect Us? Be sure to include three short quotations from the article which support your findings. The Crucible Work: We begin our first piece of fiction with The Crucible, a story about the hysteria of the Salem witch trials. We will complete the unit with a word character analysis of one of the main characters. Notebook Check: You ll need the following for our first notebook check. Put these in your LA Handouts tab in this order. LA Handouts: Unit guide 2 (on top) Unit guide 1 How Do I Format My Paper? SRI reading sheet Class Rules (separate from unit guide 1) 2
3 Socratic Seminar Introduction Mr. Coia Article: Is Google Making Us Stupid? Essential Question: How Does Our Internet Usage Affect Us? Socratic Seminars -- Grading Rubric A major goal of this class is to develop the student's skill to analyze a text, and then demonstrate that analysis through speaking and writing. Socratic seminars seek to give the student the opportunity to demonstrate a level of understanding of a text and the ability to apply those ideas through the spoken word. Rules 1. Students read a text provided by the teacher. 2. The group sits in two circles. 3. No put-downs or arguments. 4. All members must participate to be evaluated. 5. There is no single right or wrong answer to the essential question. Procedures 1. No raising hands. Speak when appropriate. 2. This is a student-led discussion. The teacher is not a participant in the discussion, but an active observer. 3. The teacher will evaluate the students based on the grading rubric included in this information. 4. Refer to the text / source material whenever possible. Uses text- Use text during the Socratic Seminar. Refer to it for evidence. Evidence and examples are essential to your grade and are a habit of mind you should have. Number of Comments- How often did you speak? Did you interrupt people? Don't talk to the teacher, talk to the class. You will lose points if you are talking while others are trying to score points. Asks or responds to questions- Do you listen to what others are saying? Did you ask a question to the group or did you respond to a question posed to the group? Answers Essential Question- Refer directly to the EQ. Be very clear that you are answering the EQ. 3

6 Literary Analysis: Dramatic and Verbal Irony In real life, things are often different from what they seem. When this occurs both in life and in literature it is called irony. Writers and playwrights make use of two forms of irony to surprise and entertain their readers and viewers. In dramatic irony, the characters think one thing to be true, but the audience knows something else to be true. This creates interest and tension in a story or play. In verbal irony, words seem to say one thing but mean something quite different. DIRECTIONS: Explain the verbal or dramatic irony that exists in the following passages. 1. Upon hearing Proctor s and Mary s statements, Danforth is shaken by the idea that Abigail and the girls could be frauds. Danforth challenges Proctor with this: Now, Mr. Proctor, before I decide whether I shall hear you or not, it is my duty to tell you this. We burn a hot fire here; it melts down all concealment. 2. Parris, to save his own reputation, is eager to support Abigail s claims and the court s decisions. He accuses several people of making attacks upon the court. Hale s response is this: Is every defense an attack upon the court? Can no one? 3. Proctor reminds Mary of a biblical story about the angel Raphael and a boy named Tobias. In the story, the boy frees a woman from the devil and cures his father of blindness. 4. Hale feels there is weight in Mary Warren s deposition. He cautions Danforth about not examining it closely: Excellency, I have signed seventy-two death warrants; I am a minister of the Lord, and I dare not take a life without there be a proof so immaculate no slightest qualm of conscience may doubt it. 5. Proctor is informed that Elizabeth has said she is pregnant. Proctor says he knows nothing of it but states that his wife does not lie. Later, when questioned about her husband s fidelity, Elizabeth lies, thinking she is protecting her husband and his reputation. 6. What does the audience know about the girls that many of the characters including Danforth originally do not know? 7. What does the audience know about Abigail that many of the characters including Danforth originally do not know? 8.There are many conflicts in The Crucible. What is the central conflict involving John Proctor? 9. What is the climax of The Crucible the scene where the conflict reaches the greatest dramatic tension? Explain your answer. 10. Why is this climax an example of dramatic irony? 6
7 Character Recipe Mr. Coia LA 11 Objective: You will demonstrate your understanding of a character by creating them in a recipe form. Imagine that you were to cook up that character. I m asking you to record what comprises that person. Preparation Tips: Prewriting 1. Select a character from the literary work you are currently devouring. 2. List character traits and descriptions as they appear in the novel, short story, biography, etc. 3. Determine and list events or forces that they believe helped shape the character. 4. Look at a few recipes from magazines to see how they are written. Writing Create a recipe that the author might have used to develop the character they have selected. Baste themselves in creative juices every so often. Revising Stir. Add ingredients. Check to make sure preparation instructions are clear and in logical order. Proofreading Check spelling, abbreviations for measurements, and that preparation instructions are delivered using imperative sentences (if you don t know what one is, find out!). 7
8 Here s an example: Beverly Lewis 10/18/2010 Character Recipe LA 11 Mr. Coia 173 words Reverend Hale s Puritan Turnovers Ingredients: 3 cups Religious Fervor (Puritan flavor) 1 cup Fear of Authorities 1 bunch Books Weighted with Authority 3 heaping tablespoons Pride 2 cups Faulty Logic 3 drops Yellow food coloring pinch of Truth 1 pint Compassion sprinkle Guilt 1 piece Rope Directions: Start with Religious Fervor and Books Weighted with Authorities. Knead until thoroughly mixed. Slowly fold in Faulty Logic, one chunk at a time. Sprinkle Pride over mixture and blend until thoroughly combined. Place in a hot Salem kettle. When mixture is in the heat, the backbone will be exposed. Carefully remove and discard. Add Yellow food coloring. During cooking, mixture will slowly turn colors. Carefully add Truth. The yellow color will fade, giving way to a vibrant color. The Pride in the mixture will shrink, giving way to a healthier formation. Add Compassion. The Turnovers will remove themselves from the heat. Serve on a plain dish, garnished with a portion of Rope. Preparation Time: Three months Serves: Two people: Elizabeth and John Proctor. Perhaps not quite enough for either. 8
