In first and third hour, we completed our review and informal practice regarding claim, evidence, and warrant to recap the importance of these steps in the organization of an argumentative essay. All of those aforementioned steps came in handy as you started your argument for a staff member to be Educator or Employee of the Year. Remember, you are required to complete a first draft and receive feedback from me. It is up to you whether you turn in this for the official nomination by December 14. I hope you all do :) You have had extraordinary teachers here at FZN in the past and present (and future too), and you should let those teachers know their impact on you and your classmates. You will have time in class to work on this first draft on Thursday. However, you will not have the entire 50 minutes. If you need more time, make sure to work on the draft over the next couple of days.
In fifth hour, you had until the end of class to complete your first draft for feedback and participation points. I've read some moving examples of why my colleagues are personable, intelligent, and giving members of FZN. (Plus, some really awesome hooks.) We will be working with counterclaims and rebuttals next time!
