To start off the class today, Mr. Rivers directed our
attention to the board which said "IWBAT identify the purpose of a piece
of research writing." Previous to this, we had been researching different
academic lenses to focus on for examples history or science. The importance of
these lenses is to focus on one specific topic and idea, then find a movie that
correlates both the topic and idea you had. Mr. Rivers had told us how
once we come up with a topic we must research it to have as much information as
possible. He also told us that your idea could and should change as you collect
more research. He then gave each group a note card that had the name of one of
the sample essays that he had previously posted on the google classroom(Shown below). Each group
was instructed to follow the templet sentence he had given us earlier in the period.
It was “A(n) (Academic lens) scholar writes a paper about (research
topic) that uses evidence from (film) to (purpose).” After we
had done the group work, Mr. Rivers told us to use the examples we had come up
with for homework and apply them to the structured sentence templet on the PowerPoint.
