Class 30
Objectives:
to think about reading closely and analyzing texts like detectives using "Who Killed Ronald McDonald"
to prepare to read the text reviewing Supplemental Materials for "Who Killed Ronald McDonald"
to introduce the Ronald McDonald Discussion Journal

Homework:
-For Monday: Complete Steps 1-2 of the Ronald McDonald Discussion Journal
Your summary should be structured like a CATW summary. In the first sentence, tell me the title of the story, whose argument you are about to summarize, and what that argument is (in other words, what is the District Attorney's main idea). Then tell me the DA's three reasons for why he thinks this (all in your own words). If you're not sure how to structure this, you can look at the CATW packet, previous notes from previous classes, or anywhere else where we've outlined how to structure a summary. But you're just writing a normal summary, just like we've been practicing, though this time it is a summary of the DA's argument (you need to summarize the DA's argument, not the story itself).
