1. Review

Before we proceed to out next topic, let us


have a recap about the topic we have
discussed last meeting. Anyone in this
class would like to volunteer to give us the
summary of the topic? Student raise their hands to give a recap.

We have discussed about the “Formulates assertions


about the content and properties of a text read
b. Formulates meaningful counterclaims in
response to claims made in a text read”

An assertion is a statement used to make a


declaration or to express strong belief on a
particular topic, often without evidence. And
Counterclaims are claims made to rebut a previous
claim. They provide a contrasting perspective to the
Very good! I believe you class are now main argument.
ready to proceed to our next topic.
2. MOTIVATION

You have previously learned that one can


give his/her own assertions on what
he/she has read. Such assertions can be
based on fact, convention, opinion or
preference and these assertions lead to
formulating claims.

As a critical reader, you should be able to


recognize and formulate
counterclaims about what was read.
Counterclaims refer to claims that refute
previous claim in your readings. It is
necessary to locate evidences provided by
the text to prove one’s counterclaim.
To clarify one’s position on giving
counterclaims, you also learned how to
formulate evaluative statements. Reading
texts should be examined carefully by
identifying evidences that support the
author’s claim, finding evidences that
support the claim and evaluate if it is
worthy for sharing. After learning these
skills in formulating evaluative statement,
you must learn to determine textual
evidences to validate assertions and
counterclaims made about a text read.

To give you a heads-up regarding our next


topic to be discussed, please answer this
activity.

Try to guess the occupation of the person


being referred to in the following

3. PRESENTATION

In the previous lrddon, you have learned


about formulating assertions and
counterclaim. This time, you will learn
how to support your assertions and
counterclaim to make it valid by
supporting a Textual Evidences.

Now let us Read the poem, Harlem by


Langston Hughes and answer the
following guide
questions. What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
Like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore ----
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over—
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
(SOURCE:

m)

Guide Questions:
1. What does the word “deferred” mean?
Since we have read the Poem, let us now 2. How is the dream compared to a raisin? rotten
answer the guide questions. meat? and heavy load?
3. What are the authors’ descriptions of a dream
deferred?
4. Based on the poem, what happens when you don’t
go after your dreams and
you defer them at a later time?
5. If you were the author, how would you feel upon
writing the poem?
6. Do you agree with the author’s idea that a dream
deferred stinks like a
rotten meat? Why?
(Answers the Poem with the students)

After answering the questions in the


previous activity, you are able to identify
words from the poem that help you
understand what the author is trying to tell.
The words and phrases like deferred, fester
like a sore, stink like rotten meat, and sags,
like heavy loads are examples of textual
evidences you can find in the poem. These
will help you formulate your claim and
counterclaim about the author’s tone and
mood in writing his poem.
So now, tell me what is textual evidence?

(Student answers) Textual evidence is defined as the


details given by the author in order to
support his/her claims. It reveals the position of the
writer and makes the reading
more interesting. Evidences are details that
strengthen, add variety or weight to any
argument.
4. DISCUSSION

Very good!

Now, what are the different ways on how


you can present textual evidence in your
Writings? Please read the slide on
presented on the TV screen. (Ask one
student to read) There are different ways on how you can present
textual evidence in your
writings. It can be through paraphrasing or restating
the text in your own words,
through summarizing or stating in a shorter way the
text and other relevant details
to support the idea, through referencing or
Thank you. Imagine yourself, presenting mentioning a specific section in the text,
the court case of the century whose and through quoting or directly restating a part of the
outcomes will impact people for decades text.
to come….and you have to forensic data,
no eye-witness account, nothing. What
will happen?

No matter how eloquent, no matter how


grammatically sound, no matter how
organized, no matter how correct– without
evidence, any and all argumentation will
fall flat.

So, what make citing textual evidence


important?
(Student answers) Sir, citing textual evidence is
important because it requires the reader to support
their ideas, questions, and claims with factual
evidence rather than irrational notions.
Very good answer! Citing evidence requires students to think more
deeply about the text, analyze the author, source etc.
Now, let us discuss the ways of presenting
textual evidence.

We have, number one: Paraphrasing.


Please read the next slide presented on the
TV screen.
Please read, _______.
This is restating an author’s or someone else’s work
using your own words without losing the original idea
of the text.

Thank you.
Example:
The original passage: Students frequently overuse
direct quotation in taking notes; as a result, they
overuse quotations in the final (research) paper.
Probably only about 10% of your final manuscript
should appear as directly quoted matter. Therefore,
you should strive to limit the amount of exact
transcribing of source materials while taking notes
(Lester, 1976 p. 46 – 47)

The paraphrase: In research papers students often


quote excessively, failing to keep quoted material
down to a desirable level. Since the problem usually
originates during note taking. It is essential to
minimize the material recorded verbatim (Lester,
1976 p. 46 – 47)
Okay, please read the second way of
presenting the textual evidence. (ask
random students to read)

References: This is the act of mentioning a specific


section of the text like an event or action.
Examples:
• According to Fusel, ‘The Oxford Book of
English Verse presides over the Great War in a way
that has never been fully appreciated’ (159).
• Strickland tells the story of Minty Nelson, a
27-year-old Seattle University employee and student,
whose encounter with a census worker epitomizes the
identity battle faced constantly by multiracial people.
Okay, in other words, Referencing allows
you to acknowledge the contribution of
other writers and researchers in your work.
Any university assignments that draw on
the ideas, words or research of other
writers must contain citations. Referencing
is also a way to give credit to the writers
from whom you have borrowed words and
ideas.

Let us proceed to the third way of


presenting textual evidence. Please read,
student name.
Summarizing This is stating the essential ideas
together of the text in a shorter way.

Example:
The original passage: Students frequently overuse
direct quotation in taking notes; as a result, they
overuse quotations in the final (research) paper.
Probably only about 10% of your final manuscript
should appear as directly quoted matter. Therefore,
you should strive to limit the amount of exact
transcribing of source materials while taking notes
(Lester, 1976 p. 46 – 47)
The summary: Students should take just a few notes
in direct quotation from sources to help minimize the
amount of quoted material in a research paper (Lester,
1976 p. 46 – 47)

As you may observe in th example


provided, always use in-text citations
when you paraphrase or summarize, to let
the reader know that the information Yes, Sir.
comes from another source. Do you
understand?
Quoting This is stating a part of a text in the exact

read, _________.
Example:
Samantha King, a forensic specialist, stated that
―DNA evidence is usually indisputable.
According to Confucius, ―You can’t open a book
without learning something.
Thank you. So, In-text citations include
the last name of the author followed by a
page number enclosed in parentheses.
"Here's a direct quote" (Smith 8). If the
author's name is not given, then use the
first word or words of the title. Follow the
same formatting that was used in the
works cited list, such as quotation marks.

Once again class, this is a reminder,


support your statements with textual
evidence to come up with strong or solid
arguments, and make your ideas more Yes, Sir.
credible. You can come up with good
textual evidence by selecting the most
relevant section of the text that strongly
supports your statement about the text.
Okay?

5. GENERALIZATION

Let us have a recap.

Textual evidence is verified text that has


been collected from the original source or
document that supports a thesis or an
argument, often appearing as a quotation
or descriptive text.
