Great readers unite! I am so very proud to adapt my own 6-week Spar Lit Jr: Understanding Literature Through Speech and Debate Techniques, A Wrinkle in Time into a 6 session 2-week class with exactly the same lessons and content as the long term 6-week version of the class. Same lessons, same enjoyment of the class except we get to finish the book faster! Spar Lit Jr: Understanding Literature Through Speech and Debate (A Wrinkle in Time) Spar Lit Jr. 2: Understanding Literature Through Debate --A Long Way From Chicago. Spar Lit Jr. 3: Understanding Literature Through Debate--The Westing Game Spar Lit Jr. 4: From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler Spar Lit Jr. 5: Understanding Blue Balliett's Chasing Vermeer Through Debate Spar Lit Jr. 6: Understanding Harriet the Spy Through Speech and Debate Spar Lit Jr. 7; Understanding A Single Shard Through Speech and Debate Spar Lit Jr. 8: The Phantom Tollbooth Through Speech and Debate are all my own self-created classes. All of these classes have now been adapted from long-term multi-week classes into multi-session 2-week Spar Lit Jr. Boot Camp versions. Our 6 session 2-week A Wrinkle in Time class will focus on blending the acknowledged technique of Spar debating with understanding literature through debate and discussion. Spar means “SPontaneous ARgumentation” a quicktime technique that is used to prepare students for formal debate. Our class will use Spar debating the key points of literature to explore the essential and critically-acclaimed Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time. The result? Students will learn to take a position on key issues involving intriguing and provocative literary questions, while gaining a nuanced and thorough understanding both sides of every issue. All students will gain an enhanced exploration of literature while expanding debate techniques. This class has been purposely limited to six students to maximize the participation of every learner. In addition, optional homework assignments, created to enhance critical thinking, are available to learners after each session. If learners choose to complete the optional assignments they will receive immediate written response. Spar is quick debate! With debaters given the Pro or Con position, a short Spar debate can illuminate ideas and provide for more nuanced critical thinking. Each of the classes will run as follows: 5 minutes of general introduction 20 minutes of interactive discussion on the chapter or pages set for the class 20 minutes of ongoing Spar pro/con debate involving key literary questions from the weekly reading 15 minutes of recap of the Spar discussions and the points raised by the students. **** How does SPAR debating work? 10 MINUTE MINI DEBATES! Students face off in pairs to debate a Pro/Con question involving the specific reading from literature for the day. COIN FLIP TO DETERMINE PRO/CON 2 minutes Both students have 1 to 2 minutes to brainstorm ideas for their position (evidence/arguments) 1 minute Pro student gives a 1 minute opening statement to make their case (Con student listens quietly and takes notes) 1 minute Con student gives a 1 minute opening statement to make their case (Pro student listens quietly and take notes) 30 seconds Both students think! 3 minutes Mini crossfire discussion where both students can ask each other questions about opposing statements. 30 seconds Both students think again to prepare their closing statements 1 minute Con student gives a 1 minute closing statement (Pro student listens quietly) 1 minute Pro student gives a 1 minute closing statement (Con student listens quietly) *** Our sessions will run as follows: Week 1 Day 1: chapters 1 & 2 Day 2: chapters 3 & 4 Day 3: chapters 5 & 6 Week 2 Day 4: chapters 7 & 8 Day 5: chapters 9 & 10 Day 6: chapters 11 & 12 No previous experience with speech and debate or Spar debating required, However, this class also provides an excellent outlet for speech and debate students interested in enhancing their ability to communicate their ideas with clarity and style that will be useful in classrooms and in ongoing discussions everywhere. Note: My own Spar Lit Jr. courses (Spar Lit Jr 1: A Wrinkle in Time, Spar Lit Jr 2: A Long Way From Chicago, Spar Lit Jr. 3: The Westing Game, 4: From the Mixed -Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, 5 Harriet the Spy, 6. Chasing Vermeer, 7, A Single Shard, The 8 Phantom Tollbooth ) can be taken in any order.
