TUESDAY, September 11
Motif groups presented their theme statements with passages in the format of CLAIM, EVIDENCE, COMMENTARY. The theme statement is the claim. The text we mark becomes evidence to prove that claim, and the marginalia is commentary.

Check the presentation syllabus before your group presents.

Find passages from ALL motif groups on the PDFs page.

ABSENT? If you miss your group's presentation, you'll need to check with me about a make up assignment. If you miss another group's presentation, you'll need to pick up or print copies of the passages and copy notes from someone whose notes you trust.

We began our analysis of a piece of film.

ABSENT? Are you kidding? You missed a great time we had watching and studying a short piece of film. You can't really make this up, and we didn't do an assignment to turn in, but you will be at a disadvantage since you missed this. You need to talk to a friend or two to find out how it went, copy any notes we wrote down.
