The blogs this week will be based in brevity, so if you have any questions, do not hesitate to e-mail or ask in person for further details. The blog previous to this one, "Discussing Diana," has links to the video and transcripts for the Diana readings today if you were absent or if you would like to watch/read again.
1: You received your Keats prompt back and then we jumped into Queen Elizabeth II's speech regarding the death of Princess Diana.
3: We reviewed vocab and then made our way through the fallacy packet, which we will finish up tomorrow. Before the sound faded into cessation, we watched the Direct TV slippery slope commercials, which you may view here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZ80SVOHKoo.
4: We worked with fallacies all hour in the packet and watched the video link from third hour regarding slippery slopes. For homework, construct a minimum 15 step slippery slope and feel free to bring in humor, creativity, and egregious examples.
7: We started with a vocab quiz for unit 15 and then spent the rest of the class reviewing rhetorical strategies via the two Diana speeches.
