HOTO DebPrep on Opponents - LOTF Online Game - Began LOTF Movie

Yep, same one as yesterday; good of you to notice!

Today our scholars did the following

History: Indians of Texas

Took Debate Prep Notes from HOTO articles on the 3 opposing tribes
  • They did not have to highlight the HOTO articles  but simply took notes right onto the Debate Planning Sheet they worked on yesterday.
  • They were to indicate by color coding the information they were taking from the HOTO articles.
Literature: Lord of the Flies
  • Played, discussed, and evaluated an online Lord of the Flies Game
  • Discussed Ch. 10 of LOTF
  • Watched and discussed the first 13 minutes of the 1963 Peter Brooks movie version of Lord of the Flies

Assignments for Wednesday:

1. Finish HOTO notes on your 3 Debate opponents
  • You are taking these notes on the Debate Planning Sheet.
  • Please remember to color code them so I can see they are taken from HOTO. This will also allow you during the debate to say something like, "As stated in the Handbook of Texas Online . . ." This will add authority to your arguments, as HOTO is considered to be a respected, scholarly source.
  • These notes will be graded tomorrow. 
2. Read and write questions over Ch. 11 of LOTF: "Castle Rock."
  • Please follow the QFT (Questions Formulation Technique) we've been using the past week.
