Today, I gave you
another reading in relation to the issue of changing Canada’s national anthem
("Interim councillor calling for "O Canada" change). This one
provides a lot of background on the anthem (something you will need for your
first full writing assignment). It also provides you with a lot of opinions on
the issue! I want you to do the following:
· Actively read
the article and the comments.
· Determine
who is in support of the change and who isn’t (I just write “yes” and
“no” beside each comment).
· Determine
who has a logical argument and who is just rambling or
is providing no opinion (I just write “log.” and “nope” beside the comment –
create your own legend!!!
· Do
not hand this in (I will do a walk-through tomorrow). If you have time left
over, read your novel.
· Some
of you also have received your paragraphs back. Start working on what I have
instructed from you.
If you were not here,
this article can be Googled and read at home. It will also be in your portfolio.
