September 16, 2013

Objective: I will talk about an issue accurately, using academic language in philosophical charis. Today's warm-up was a 5 minute quickwrite arguing for or against a ban on trash talking during sports events at Adam Stephens Middle School. After, students watched a video demonstrating philosophical chairs while watching for appropriate language and behavior. Students did an activity on sentence starters for discussion, using the three steps of 1. Repeat statement, 2. Give your opinion, and 3. Cite evidence. Finally, student took their notes and stood in two facing lines to debate the pros and cons of implementing a ban on trash talk at Adam Stephens Middle School. The students used academic language and represented their side.
