12/16

Warm-up: Write a response. How should a teacher handle teaching subjects that are unpleasant, painful or controversial? What is the responsibility of the teacher in these situations? Can you think of some topics or events that are unpleasant, painful, or controversial, but that must be taught or discussed in school?

Classwork: Discuss "The History Teacher", "Eleven" and the graphs, discuss and prepare for argumentative essay prompt

Homework: Type the first draft of your essay. This should be as thorough, as thoughtful, and as edited as possible. It is in no way a "rough" draft. This should represent your BEST effort. We will have some writing workshops on Monday and Tuesday, and these may prompt major changes, but your draft is the best that you could do alone.
