ELA- We continued our Persuasive Research work today by learning about the importance of organization in a paper, the steps to take from being sure that their Thesis is supported by their reasons and their reasons are supported by their details.  We organized our details/research note-cards on pages that contained our thesis and reasons for our thesis statement.  We then physically moved our sheets around until we found the correct order of paragraphs (sequential, order of importance, etc).  After that was decided the students took their information and transferred it on to an official outline. This outline is a part of their final packet for this paper.  Homework: Outline, READ!, Journal # 14. Attachments: Day 9 Outline Samples, Persuasive Research Day 9, Rubric
