Class #17: Wednesday, November 9, 2016: IN-CLASS CLASS IN B11 TONIGHT!!!!
The Anchor literature: As we have done before, let's begin with some opinion from the NY Times.
(10 minutes)
Family Concept Challenge: Research/Thesis
1. We will begin with consensus. Can Trump be a good president of the United States? A great president? Was last night as bad as it feels to some Americans? Is America about to be great again? Your family will need to fight this out. Come to agreement however you see fit, just do it. (10 mins)
2. Your family will develop a well-written, argumentative and specific thesis (strive to use subordination for a more nuanced effect) that reflects the agreed-upon stance on last night's election. You will submit to Google Docs on the document I shared last time (10 mins)
3. Your family will find ONE solid source to back your thesis. Place an APA style citation for it on the doc. (15 mins)
4. You will take the class through the levels of credibility for your source. (all six, all family members must speak during the presentation).
