April 27

2: It's been awhile. In the time that has passed, you should be utilizing your time to prepare for the full AP test -- class and actual -- in the next two weeks. What does that involve? I would hazard a guess that this incorporates the study of rhetorical toolbox terms, the review of tone terminology, and the practice of close reading, rhetorical analysis, argumentation, and synthesis.

During class today, you completed MC for passages 6d & 6e. Following this work, you then completed a prompt regarding one of the political writer passages. After we paper clipped all of the politicians together, we read the opening chapter of Pride & Prejudice and Pride & Prejudice & Zombies to analyze the purposes of both texts and the rhetorical strategies used by the authors. Make sure you bring back all the paperwork --- politicians and zombies --- for tomorrow's class.

4: After we turned in everything (or at least it looks like that in my grading box), we spent the remainder of the time playing with our tally sheets. I highly recommend you study all of your terms for the test, the review, the tally sheets, and prep sessions.
