APELC Class Notes
Objectives: APELCers 1) differentiated levels of critical thinking in a text, and 2) processed a photograph.
First and third juniors and seniors, I allowed you to review your highlighting of the Ayad text in class and then we discussed her selection and organization of evidence, and her analysis of the former that connected it to her thesis. These are considerations I’ll encourage you to make as you revise your Soto analysis; know that your revision really succeeds or fails according to the evidence you choose. It provides the foundation from which you’ll build your analysis and proves your thesis.
We spent the final half of class discussing the Morton photograph in your texts and you have time to begin answering questions over the Manning essay. We’ll pick up with this text next class and the Vowell piece I’ve assigned for homework.
Remember that College Night is tonight at the TCC. Be there to get the information you need to make a decision about or help you begin to plan for life after high school.
DERRION ALBERT. Please take time to read the story of this young man who’ll never get to realize his graduation let alone the achievement of a college or any other dream because of the mindless violence visited upon him.
