Lesson 46: February 4-5

Today's objectives:
By the end of today's lesson, students will demonstrate that they are able to analyze and evaluate an argument using EAP essay structure.

Agenda:
1) SSR in Kindred
2) Students will read six sample EAP quotations (at varying levels of difficulty) and choose one that they want to analyze/respond to.
3) Students will orally "pre-write" in groups using standard EAP discussion questions.
4) Students will individually write EAP essays for 40 minutes.

HW: Read through p. 213 in Kindred. If you are behind, it's very important that you get caught up over the weekend because we will begin working towards the next English graduation portfolio essay (using the parts of Kindred that you should have read) next Monday/Tuesday.
