  8. Lets go one step further • (candy for whoever can tell me the difference between “further” and “farther”) • Using your computers, find some scholarly articles that would help us argue our topic (BOTH SIDES!!!) • You probably ought to read the article…just saying • Share out those articles…we will read them. IF they are truly scholarly.

  9. Yes/No Chart • We’ve done this before… • USE THOSE SOURCES WE CAME UP WITH!!!! • On a the back of the article…4 for each side.

  10. Prep for tomorrow… • We will be having debates tomorrow, so you need to prepare. • The trick is, you won’t which side you will be arguing. • Remember: Whichever side you are on tomorrow, you can/should use the arguments you create on the other side as your counter arguments.
