Jigsaw Discussion ch 21 & 22: 

Small Group

• ***RL6.1 Making Inferences and supporting your analysis with evidence
• SL6.1 Engaging Effectively in Collaborative Discussions

Directions:

• Use your Cornell Notes to discuss ch. 21 & 22
• Share the inferences you made while reading. 
• Discuss the evidence you used to make your inference.
• Then discuss the Key Questions 
• Take turns asking your group the questions you wrote

What do you expect from your group members during the discussion? (See the 4 c's of 21st century skills)

Key Questions:
What inferences did you make in chapter 19 & 20? 
What evidence did you use to support your thinking?

1. Gram says, “Do not judge a book by its cover.” What does this phrase mean?

2. One theme we see in this chapter is appearances versus reality, the idea that things are not always what they seem to be at first glance. We see this in people, places and events. 

Did Max and Kevin judge Lorretta and Iggy Lee wrong? How so?

3. In what ways are Max and Kevin a team?

4. Analyze the statement: You don't need a time machine if you know how to remember. (What does Kevin mean?)

5. Based on the authors description of the technology how can you tell that this book is published in 1993 and not 2015?

Exit Ticket:

One theme we see in this chapter is about appearances versus reality, the idea that people are not always what they seem to be at first glance. Gram says, “Do not judge a book by its cover.” Make in inference about what this phrase means? Did Max and Kevin judge Iggy and Loretta Lee wrong? Use at least two pieces of evidence to support your thinking?
