How can active listening increase our focus and understanding?
Objective: Students will identify and evaluate speakers' purpose, reasoning, and persuasive appeal.
1. We read independently for 15 minutes.
2. We met in book club groups to discuss our reading.
3. We discussed how purposeful, active listening can increase our comprehension.
4. We listened to our classmates' persuasive speeches and took notes evaluating the structure and appeal of each speech.
For next time: Come prepared for remaining persuasive speeches.
