Thursday, Nov. 29 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: Get outline for essay out/print it out (do this quickly and quietly)
}My movie essay outline: “How-to” explanation of paragraph
}Essay Test: All essays must be done by the end of the block
Your essay should have either four paragraphs (2 body paragraphs with TIQA run twice) or six paragraphs (4 body paragraphs with TIQA run once)
Conclusion: Restated thesis and closure to overall idea
At the end of the block (when I ask) staple outline and paper to rubric to turn in (first folder in green crate)
}Research next step
Questions and Key Terms
8 Research questions with key terms highlighted
Should be done after 10 minutes
Potential Sources (need at least 15, aim for more): These should be on the same document as the questions and key terms.  You need to start at EBSCOhost (use the link from Google Classroom
Today’s goals:
Questions and Key Terms
Absolute minimum 15 potential sources (aim for more)
Videos, first person info, images, as well as articles
You should have at least 15 (hopefully closer to 20) potential sources by the middle of the block tomorrow
Continue researching: you want a lot of different texts (articles, audio clips, video clips, pictures, etc) that show the importance of your theme/issue (you should be looking during your research for an issue/problem/negative situation connected to your theme)
If you have 15-20 sources, start taking notes. Think about your research questions and your final goal, and take notes that help you achieve your purpose. Make sure that the sources you take notes on are reliable

}Your final goal is to present your findings to the class in a PSA video in order to give your peers an awareness of issues affecting teens in society today
