Quick Write #4: A RITS----------Both the worksheet and quick write are due today---NO EXCEPTIONS!!!!!!!!

First, complete both sides of your worksheet (see yesterday's blog post). Make sure you are using the correct information from ACT 2. Scene 3 ONLY.

Quick Write Topic: (Example Quick Write was on Friday 4/18)---Use your graphic organizer from your worksheet for help!!!!!!

Quick Write #4 RITS: Make at least three claims about the character of Walter displayed by the author in Act 2, Scene 3. Use at least one example from the text to support each claim and explain. I strongly suggest you use adjectives to describe Walter. Think about the STEAL strategy we have notes on indirect characterization (as well as any direct you see):
Speech
Thoughts
Effects on others
Actions
Looks

Here is a review of our TREEE*S quick write format:

Thesis- (the point you will prove--your 3 claims about Walter as seen in Act 2, Scene 3/TAG)
Reason- (why do you believe this is true--just an overview--NOT SPECIFIC examples yet!)


Claim #1: (adjective from your chart)
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis


TRANSITION
Claim #2:(adjective from your chart)
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis


TRANSITION
Claim #3:(adjective from your chart)
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis
Evidence/Explain-textual evidence to prove one claim and explain or connect to the thesis


Summary-sum up your main points

**Note: for the best quick write (8/8), I would use 2 textual examples for each claim



For example:
claim #1: Walter is sexist
I saw this here:                       this shows he is sexist because:
I also saw this here:               this shows this because:
