10/2

Hello all!

Today we worked with our short story "Harrison Bergeron" again. Yes, I know they are printed all sorts of crazy--come on, give a teacher a break! ;) 

You are responsible for having asked three Level 3 questions about the text. Choose one of your questions and make your claim (example: Kurt Vonnegut is satirizing those individuals who believe giving equal rights to all would turn into a society like that of Harrison Bergeron), find your evidence for your claim by marking and annotating your text using your "Marking and Annotating Literary Text" handout (the neon green one--you can't miss it!). 

You should end up with a chart like the ones we did for "Slip or Trip" and "The Lunchroom Murder":

Claim: ____________________________

Evidence: Choose 3 pieces of evidence

Rules/Warrants: 3 Rules/Warrants Explains why your evidence is relevant to your claim (check your "Warrants Examples" Handout for additional help with this.

Conclusion: ___________________________________
