Monday, Sept 23, LTS

Objective: By the end of class, students will understand the differences between ANALYZE, EVALUATE AND SUMMARIZE, CREATE PLOT STRUCTURE FOR LTS and demonstrate comprehension via short quiz.

DO NOW

WRITE the following definitions down. These are the differences between ANALYZE / EVALUATE and SUMMARIZE.

ANALYZE - to break it down. Pick it apart. Include a quotation to support your idea.

SUMMARIZE - to give a brief statement of main points - who, what, when where and why. Keep it simple.

EVALUATE - form an idea or opinion about something. What do you think about it?

Direct Instruction

Which below is an example of a  summary, analyzing and/or evaluating:

When Patrick got home, he had a drink, sat down and wanted to talk to his pregnant wife, Mary. He inferred that he was going to leave her. He didn't want her to make a fuss because it wouldn't be good for his job.

When Patrick got home, he had a drink, sat down and wanted to talk to his pregnant wife, Mary. He does not actually say it, but instead, infers that he is going to leave her. We know this because he says, "...Of course I'll give you money and see that you are looked out for..." Patrick is very "matter-of'-fact" when he delivers this devastating information and foolishly assumes Mary is going to remain calm.

When Patrick got home, he had a drink, sat down and wanted to talk to his pregnant wife, Mary. He does not actually say it, but instead, infers that he is going to leave her. We know this because he says, "...Of course I'll give you money and see that you are looked out for..."  He continues to say he hopes there will be no fuss and he is concerned about his job. I think his reaction is cold-hearted and selfish. Patrick was delusional to think that Mary was jut going to sit back and calmly accept his decision.
