During class today, students go two assignments to for next week.
First we reviewed plagiarism.
We added three vocabulary words to our list:
attribution
paraphrase
plagiarism
Next we reviewed the annotations students had due for the Introduction of Catching Fire.
Next we analyzed the statement "the transformative moment that gave rise to the genus Homo... stemmed from the control of fire and the advent of cooked meals."
Students took notes on how to create "note cards" and "resource cards." Mr. Zartler demonstrated the use of "Citation Maker" on oslis.org for generating citations.
Mr. Zartler did lessons on embedding quotes with a proper introduction:
Richard Wrangham claims, "the transformative moment that gave rise to the genus Homo ... stemmed from the control of fire and the advent of cooked meals" (2). (Add explanation here.)
and attributing paraphrases with an attribution:
According to Wrangham having cooks makes us human. Cooks are the missing link. (Add explanation here.)
Students are to explain the argument that Wrangham makes to prove, "the transformative moment that gave rise to the genus Homo... stemmed from the control of fire and the advent of cooked meals" (2). Using three pieces of evidence from the introduction, at least one embedded quote, and at least one paraphrase. The piece should have the MLA bibliographic reference at the end of the paper.
This short essay is due on Monday.
Juniors will meet with counselors next Thursday, but first they, and all students need to show Mr. Zartler 50 index cards (lined preferred).
