- Notes: I'll introduce Lesson Three Vocabulary: "Open and Shut."
- Then we'll review the difference between analyzing a text by making an argument about its meaning and supporting that argument with evidence and simply writing a book report by giving basic summary of what happens in the book without regard to what it means.
- Finally, you'll work with a partner of your choice to complete an open book partner quiz over chapters 7-8 of The Things They Carried: "How to Tell a True War Story" and "The Dentist." Your goal will be not simply to answer questions about what happens in the book but to make arguments about what the events of the book mean and to support those arguments using textual evidence that is correctly cited and logically interpreted.
