Viewing and annotating Everest film

NASA/GSFC/METI/ERSDAC/JAROS,

and U.S./Japan ASTER Science Team

Caption from NASA: On Friday, April 26, 2014, an avalanche

on Mount Everest killed at least 13 Sherpa guides.

 NASA Terra spacecraft looked toward the northeast,

 with Mount Everest center, and Lhotse, the fourth-highest

 mountain on Earth, on the skylineto right center.

Goals: Looking at risk and rewards on a larger scale, while tracking ethos, logos, and pathos in a film.

Agenda:
Read
Progress update
Setting up our notes
Film viewing

1. Reading Progress Survey: Complete the FORM.

2. Setting Up Notes: 

• Use tables in your English Journal to track a few things as we watch the film. 
• Use a two column table to list risks and rewards you see mentioned in the film. 
• Use a three row table to note examples of ethos, logos, and pathos in the film. 
• I will show you examples in class. 

Viewing Questions:

1.  What are some of the risks associated with climbing Mt. Everest?
2. What are some of the rewards associated with climbing Mt. Everest?
3.  Do you think the rewards outweigh the risks? Why/why not?
4. How do the film makers use ethos, logos, and pathos to support their messages? 

Reminders: 

• Did you find a non-fiction article to go with book #10? If not keep looking for that. Paste a link to it in your English Journal. 
• Keep reading. 
• Review your Poe/Laughton essay to check your score and/or work on it before I grade it. You can revise it and request a regrade if it is already scored.
