| Thoughts/Comments/Questions about Chapter 13 This time, as you should know, I am raising the bar on your answers. Your requirements are:
1. You must provide at least TWO thoughtful, ORIGINAL , level 2 or 3 questions.
2. You must also respond to TWO other posts. You MUST MUST MUST provide textual evidence to SUPPORT your answer. Textual evidence is:
A direct quote (either a sentence, phrase, or even just a few words) from the book with a correspoding page number.
That doesn't mean that your evidence must straight-up ANSWER the question (although it could). That means that you have a BASIS for your comment/opinion/idea somewhere in the book. You can't simply pull ideas from thin air. They MUST be supported from the text. Please feel free to ask me about a question/answer before you post! | 25 | 56 | |
