DUE FRI 6/1 Period 4 - Prosecution Discovery

Come to school with a hardcopy of a complete and correct works cited page and email it to yourself so you can access it from school.

If you have not done so already, the quote analysis is due tomorrow 5/31.

Other than that, read and research as needed.

Period 4 - DUE WED May 30 Prep for trial

1. KWL charts - I will pick them up after consultation with Nancy. You started this in class. While Nancy is here take notes on them to fill in the "what I learned" part.

2. Image goals with questions. Use these as a basis to ask questions during the consultation.

3. IMPORTANT - Send your workds cited to your second chair for discovery. Second chair, your final discovery needs to indicate page numbers of major works.

Period 1 DUE WED 5/30

1. Send your works cited list(s) to the second chair.

2. Do quote analysis (#5 on witness profile)

3. If you have already done your quote analysis, start image goals and questions. Even if you have not done the quote analysis, start thinking about good image goals and take notes.

Reminder and TPOL

Witness profiles are due Tuesday, May 29. Remember, #5 is not required for Tuesday. It will be due on a later day. On Tuesday we will also finalize in class the witness and discovery list.

See important documents for a copy of the witness profile requirements. It is labeled: "mocktrial_witnessprofile." I've included the "Jana's top 5 sources" handout in the same file, under "mocktrail_sources."

I have also included 2 documents related to the TPOLs. The week before TPOLs will be devoted to TPOL prep.

I hope everyone is enjoying (or has enjoyed) their long weekend.

DUE THR 5/23/07 Classwork and Homework

DO NOT POST ANY TRIAL ASSIGNMENTS. TYPE AND PRINT OUT. You will want to keep all of your notes from this point on as a secret from the other team.

Attorneys and Second Chairs:

CLASSWORK/HOMEWORK

Prep for debate by writing a rough draft of opening and closing statements for the practice trial – remember, your opening statement only has to be a couple of minutes, but the opening statement for the actual trial has to be 5 minutes.

Start working on direct and cross examination questions for your witness and the opposition’s witness.

Witnesses, Research Assistants, and Jurors:

CLASSWORK

Read the first half of your assigned Stone readings (that’s about 4-8 pages based on the length of your particular chapter) and take notes – be prepared to summarize the main idea(s) of your section for students on your team who read another selection. Come to class with notes that include interesting details that your side or the opposition’s side can use.

HOWEWORK:

Work on Witness Profiles, due Tuesday, 5/29

DUE WED 5/23 I.F. Stone Chapter 4

DUE WED 5/23 I.F. Stone Chapter 4

This is class work for Tuesday, but if you don’t finish all of it in class I will accept it on Wed 5/23. Be prepared to discuss this with your team.

DO NOT POST THIS ON YOUR BLOG. TYPE IT AND PRINT IT OUT. You will want to keep all of your notes from this point on as a secret from the other team.

Heading

• Don’t forget your heading, with the usual information.
• In the heading indicate what team you are on – prosecution, defense, or jury
• In the heading indicate your role on the team – attorney, second chair, or witness

Read Stone Chapter 4. And answer the following questions:

Don't get hung up on sections that are confusing. Skim and read what you can get a handle on. Protagoras is the most important.

1. Of the people mentioned in this chapter choose one or two that would make good witnesses for your side or the opposition.

2. For each person that you chose write a sentence explaining whose side he would represent and why this person would be good for that side. Make a list of details/evidence from the reading that helps explain your view.

3. Find a direct quote that is at least one sentence long that you might want to present as evidence (or that you think the opposition might present as evidence)

Reminder - due TUE 5/22

Socrates profiles are due Tuesday May 22.

Classwork for Monday 5/21 Thucydides or Keuls

In class, as a team, choose which of the selections you are going to read. Half the team should read Thucydides and the other half should read Keuls.

Format for Thucydides/Keuls notes:

Heading

• Don’t forget your heading, with the usual information.
• In the heading indicate what team you are on – prosecution, defense, or jury
• In the heading indicate your role on the team – attorney, second chair, or witness

Answer the following questions:

At the top of your paper indicate which selection you read.

1) Make a list of details in the text that help your team – if none do, state “not applicable” – but think about it first, maybe there is a hidden nugget in there that you can find.

2) Make a list of details in the text that help the other team – if none do, state “not applicable” – but think about it first, maybe there is a secret nugget in there that you can find.

3) Give at least one direct quote from the text could be used to help your side or that can be used by the opposition (Give page number)

Reminder

Reminder: The Socrates Profile is due Tuesday 22^nd. Your goal should be to turn in a complete rough draft on Monday so we can go over it in class. This will be your last formal essay (there will be other written work however).

Period 4 – We did not go over this today (Wednesday) because of the advisory Olympics schedule, but we will tomorrow. Also, please stay on track to read 10 pages a day of the Apology, like we discussed in class, even though we did not meet today.

You can find a copy of the written requirements for the Socrates Profile under the important documents link on my blog home page. Look for “socrates_profile_07.”

Period 1 and 4 - Some of you have not turned in debate reflections for the censorship debate. Please don't forget that, as you will not get a grade for the debate and debate prep without it.
