Lesson Topic
Assumption and inference; short argument
Lesson Outline
Elle learned the short argumentative terms, premise and conclusion, and created an example of her own to illustrate this. She realized that it is a good method to introduce an essay or pinpoint the purpose of a paper. We watched the beginning of a movie called "Bird Box" -- the beginning is very benign -- and used it for "prediction," "assumption," and "inference." Elle showed great dexterity in using technology to find answers to questions about the Bird Box Challenge that was on twitter that had caused damage and injury to mostly teens who took up the challenge. We talked about how you need to think critically and consider implications before doing any such impulsive thing as to take up a "challenge." She then showed me another "challenge" that had been hurtful to teens with eating soap things used for dishwashers. I am glad that she realizes these things are to be AVOIDED, and her attitude is that no one should do this. Elle also showed great memorization and recall as I stopped the film after the mother had given a long list of requirements to two small children, and had Elle act the mother part to me. Elle is exceptionally good at prediction and questions about possible outcomes (implications).
