In Groups, Prepare Your TPP Presentations, Your Posters Are on the Back Tables. Make Sure

Sub Plan for 6/1/16

Do Now: 10 mins

 In groups, prepare your TPP presentations, your posters are on the back tables. Make sure everyone speaks during the presentation or answering a question. Ask a student from another group to film it on their iPad.

Presentations: 25 mins

 Groups will present one at a time, with 5 minutes each. (president in charge of timer) Answer at least 2 questions. Then email the video to [email protected]

 While other groups are presenting, think of clarifying questions to ask and take notes because you will need this info for your letters

 When you are finished, leave the posters on the same back tables

Letters: 30 mins

 Go to http://www.house.gov/representatives/find/ to find your representative and click until you get their contact page to send an email

 Yes, you need to put your information because they need to know that you live in their district

 Write a professional letter urging your rep to vote against the TPP and use at least 3 reasons mentioned in the presentations

 Here is a sentence starter: Dear Representative Schiff, I am writing to urge you to reject the Trans Pacific Partnership because…

 Before you click “submit” take a screen shot and email it to [email protected]

 If you do not have your iPad, write your letter NEATLY on a sheet of paper and leave it in my box in the office with a timestamp of no later than 1:35pm

Research Papers: 30 mins

 You are going to format your papers today, using footnotes

 You can begin by watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQAykV0pI_E

 Now you will open your research paper and click on “make a copy”

 Title your copy Per_LastFirst_Draft

 You do not need to share the new copy with me. This is a back up in case something goes wrong with the formatting, and in case you need your notes for future editing  Back in the original doc (Per_Last First_Final)

o erase all of the intro stuff from braistorming

o move the annotated bibliography after the paper (but still in the same doc)

o the beginning of the doc should be your title and then your paper

o add a footnote for each reference and delete extra information that is no longer needed

o for example, since the whole citation is in the footnote, you can simplify your citations with the most relevant part:

. According to Franklin’s autobiography, “blah blah.”1

. Pavlov’s research suggests blah blah.2

. In a New York Times article, “blah blah.”3

o When you finish, switch with your elbow partner and make sure it looks good

o You do not need to print this paper, I will check the final grading in docs tonight

Extra Time: if you finish early, you can set up the John Oliver video on tobacco with the projector and speakers and takes notes on what that could mean if the TPP passes: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=6UsHHOCH4q8
