Such a rarity that all classes are completing the same work on the same day, but here we are at diagnostic prompt writing day. Utilizing your "Roseto Mystery" passage, you were given a prompt, wrote an essay in a timed environment, and now await feedback on how you presented the information. Thus far, and it is only second hour so I do have a small sample size, I have watched the majority of you jump into writing the essay - even if you are still feeling your way into the rhetorical analysis. That attitude, one of determination, is just what you need to be successful with any writing prompt.
Tomorrow will resume our introduction to rhetorical analysis with "Story of an Hour" (1, 3, 4, you may want to consider what the purpose of the text is and what strategies you are seeing in the text prior to class), continue with vocabulary (as some hours know, I like to bring in rhetorical strategies too), and have some bonding time with your toolbox.
It's Day 5 of AP Lang, and you are now fully enveloped into rhetorical analysis. Just imagine how much more you have to learn and apply as we continue forward throughout the semester!
