Emphasis - It's an argument, so it has to be engaging and their has to be depth of thought, not just quote dropping and hit and run thinking. 

Depth of thinking and voice

Ethos, logos, pathos

Ask lots of questions of the writer whose paper you are reviewing

Use questions in your own essay, too. They can set up points.

On Canvas, check out Wesley Words for Writing for transition words and phrases that might be helpful.

Into The Wild: Read Chapters 10-12 (98-126) for tomorrow.

Stay prepared for a reading quiz.

Culminating writing assignment will be handed out tomorrow or Friday.

Into The Wild chapters 6-7

Ten minutes of take-aways...

Double-entry journal like the one we did for chapters 4-5

Find a total of 3 passages (1.5 per chapter...haha) which you feel capture or reveal the three most important take-aways (for you) from Chapters 6-7.

Exchange papers...

Respond to two of their take-aways with a "Yes, and..." or Yes, but..." comment in the margins of their entry. The comment should acknowledge their point (that's the "yes" part) but also build on it or raises a counter-point or counter-interpretation to their point (that's the "and" or "but" part). Then sign your name and hand it back.

HW: 
Read and annotate Into The Wild chapters 8-9

Read and annotate chapter 6 & 7 of Into The Wild...We're overdue for a quiz soon, so make sure you are current with the reading.
