Synthesis prompt for Huck Finn: PREP FOR NEXT MONDAY the 28th!!!

Here is the prompt for the Socratic Seminar a week from today on Huckleberry Finn: http://goo.gl/WA46zq

This week:  after you have finished reading the novel, read the prompt and the attached articles carefully (you might want to print it out for easy annotation--let me know if you will need a copy).

On Monday, we will expect you to come to class with

a. a position on the topic, written out ahead of time
b. arguments/evidence from the strongest sources, clearly cited so you can reference them easily in discussion
c. arguments from sources that you plan to QUESTION or REFUTE during the discussion

We will talk more about this on Thursday or Friday, depending on the test schedule day I see you.
