3 Daily Learning Target “I can evaluate an editorial’s arguments” Progression of Learning “I can explain my gut reaction to the Sea Shepherds” “I can rate their arguments” “I can explain why my opinion changed or did not change”

4 “I can explain my opinion on two aspects of Makah whaling” Yes, totally!No Way! “Paul Watson and the Sea Shepherds have a valid reason to oppose Makah Hunting”

5 Operation Leviathan Video Made by Sea Shepherd Society Shows whaling by a Japanese whaling fleet Some graphic footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1Oo7AgQ0nc Personal Reaction Evaluate how effective the video is

6 “I can evaluate arguments in an editorial” “Sea Shepherd’s primary reasons for opposing the plan to slaughter whales by the Makah” In your small groups read and annotate in your journals each of the seven arguments for: Persuasive Devices “Sides” of the issue Personally convincing or unconvincing arguments In your small group rate the arguments (1-7) Explain your most convincing (1) and least convincing (7) choice

7 “I can explain why my opinion changed or did not change” Yes, totally!No Way! “Paul Watson and the Sea Shepherds have a valid reason to oppose Makah Hunting”

8 Fist to Five “I can evaluate an editorial’s arguments” Reflection Question 1. Explain how and why your perspective changed or did not change Homework

9 Notes This was a HSPE day so only 65 min Worked well though, just did the continuum on the board instead of actually lining up This could be a complex instruction activity where group members get different arguments cut up and have to put them in convincing order as a group and show them somehow (perhaps paraphrase on a poster or some such)
