10/4- 10/6
Bell Ringer: Read the following activity and respond to it in your notebook.
Please follow the proper form.

Monday- Students will be given articles and asked to find an interesting direct quote in an AP article
http://www.newseum.org/todaysfrontpages/hr.asp?fpVname=AL_DD&ref_pge=gal&b_pge=1
Tuesday - Wednesday -Get a copy of today's Times Leader- locate a direct, partial and paraphrased quote- include pg # and title
http://www.newseum.org/todaysfrontpages/hr.asp?fpVname=AK_ADN&ref_pge=gal&b_pge=1
Goal: Students will be able to effectively use quotations.
Students will UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR PRECISION IN QUOTES
STUDENTS WILL KNOW THE APPROPRIATE USES OF DIRECT, PARTIAL, AND PARAPHRASED QUOTES
STUDENTS WILL KNOW HOW TO HANDLE ATTRIBUTION

Journalism Today pages 168-177

Key Terms: Direct Quotations, Partial Quotations, Paraphrased Quotes, Attribution

Monday -Step 1: Go over the rules for quotations.

Step 2: Read sections contained within pages 168-177 explaining the use of quotations.

Tuesday Step 3:
Finish Reading and Discussion of Chapter 8
Complete the following Worksheets
Attribution
Quoting and Paraphrasing

Wednesday: Step 4: Review the main points: See below
Go over examples in the workbook
Page 99- Ex 1 B and D
Page 102- Ex 3 A -J

REVIEW:1. Use quotation marks to enclose titles of short works, such as short stories, essays, newspaper articles and magazine articles.

2. Use quotation marks to enclose unfamiliar slang and other unusual for original expressions
A once-popular expression was "zounds."

3. In dialogue: begin a new paragraph and use a new set of quotation marks every time the speaker changes:
"Are you going to the zoo?" I asked.
"Well," he said. "I want to take my children to the museum."
"Why?" I asked. "Tuesday is free admission day at the zoo."
"I will," he said, "join you at the zoo on Tuesday."

4. Said Whom?Is is Smith said or said Smith? That is a little wrinkle in the ways of attribution. Here is the solution:

If all the writer wants to do is tell ho said what, then the construction is "Smith said." For example:
I love journalism class," Smith said.

However, if the writer wants to tell a bit about Smith besides his or her name, you should state it this way:
I love journalism class," said Smith, whose mother is the journalism teacher.

Closure Activity:
Wednesday- RE- evaluate the quote you located in today's Times Leader
