Close Reading

Thursday Homework

English
Gatsby chapt 6 and close read passage

Helpful steps for close reading:

• First, to determine the general meaning of the text (leaving knowledge and application of literary elements more or less tacit for now). Keep asking yourself, “What’s going on, and how do I know?”
• Second, to examine the ways the author uses language and the discipline-specific structures of literature to create meaning. Your focusing question here might be “How do the author’s choices help me understand or appreciate something that I didn’t notice the first time I read?”
• Third, to consider thematic meaning and connections between this text and others like it. Here, ask yourself, “What does this text cause me to think or wonder about some larger aspect the text and of the human condition?"

Debate Guidelines

Debate Guidelines

DO

-Dress up for your debate. You gain credibility when you look the part.

-Affirmative should begin by strongly stating the resolution in this form: “RESOLVED: American students ought to attend college.”

-If you finish early, you may say “I yield my time”

-A visual aid is allowed WITHOUT photographs or images. You may have up to 3 powerpoint slides if you choose, but they are each limited to black and white text, and a total of 150 words per slide.  You will need to refer to them by number and have projection arranged prior to the start of the debate.

-You must ALWAYS cite your sources. If you use more than three words together as written by someone else, you must attribute the source. To fail to do so is plagiarism and will result in losing the debate.

-Speak clearly, loudly, and with confidence, these will each assist your argument.

-Maintain eye-contact and good posture.

-Use cross-examination to expose factual errors or unsupported assertions.

-Face the audience, your work is for their hearing.

DON’T

-Lie. Evidence used is subject to verification. Falsification or deliberate misuse of evidence may be grounds for disqualification.

-Attempt to use overly hostile or aggressive terminology.

-No audio or other media will be allowed in the debate.

-Do not engage in personal attacks through cross-examination.
