First and fourth period learned about arguments today. Though we had been writing arguments all quarter while using the Schaffer model, we applied some different names to some old terms and added a few new terms as well. We worked on the Queenie mystery.

We decided if she murdered her husband and came up with reasons, evidence, counterclaims, and rebuttals.

Second and seventh periods did similar work, but they worked in groups with an entirely different scenario. As first and fourth might be working on a similar scenario in the near future, we’ll wait until then to present the crime scene shot.
