We spent Monday and Tuesday presenting our arguments to the class and making a decision on SpongeBob's fate. It was a lot of fun and I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of thought that went into piecing together the evidence. The students made some very persuasive cases and learned how important presentation is when trying to get someone to see your point -of-view.
Wednesday - Silent reading class
Thursday was spent on peer and self evaluations for the Sponge Bob assignment. We also debriefed and discussed the use of persuasion.
Friday was reading response day.
We also had an assembly on Friday (period 2) by MADD (Mother's Against Drunk Driving).
