035 — DISCUSS vs DO YOU AGREE?

DO NOW

With a discuss question you must agree with the statement that comes before it. Whereas, with a do you agree question you can choose whether you agree or not. With this in mind, write a lotus diagram for the following question:

Lady Macbeth is the driving force behind murders that occur in the play. Discuss.

LEARNING INTENTION

  • To clarify understanding of difference between discuss and do you agree questions
  • Gather evidence for the themes of fate and appearance vs reality

SUCCESS CRITERIA

  • I can explain how the contention box in a lotus diagram for a discuss question varies to that of a do you agree question
  • I used my notes and the internet to find three bits of evidence (referenced and direct quotes) for fate and appearance vs reality

TASK

Read this post on embedding quotes. Write a main body paragraph for the essay you have just planned and try and embed a quote as evidence.
