Lesson Outline
I provided instruction on how to use examples from fiction to support the claim in an argumentative essay. In this regard, we studied an essay of Joan Didion wherein she references characters from the novels Crime and Punishment and The Great Gatsby in order to exemplify her definition of "self respect." We noted how she integrates both quotes from the novels as well as specific examples of characters' actions to support her claim. In order to give JP some possible fictional sources to reference in his work, I I have assigned Henry James "Daisy Miller" as supplemental reading. During the second half of the session, I discussed the language and theme of the novel after which we watched a short video on James' life and on the themes of the novel.
