Prepping Time

Don't forget that first and seventh hour have approximately 24 hours to complete their tone prompts. It is the last full solo essay you will be writing for awhile.

1: At the beginning of class, you compared and contrasted your tone maps to see overlapping and juxtaposing themes, tones, and characterization for EAR's poems. Next up, we looked - literally since these were projected on a screen - at pictures and ads to identify pathos and purpose. At the end of the hour, you were assigned the current event/rhetorical analysis group project. At this point, you know your group, your topic, and your plan for tomorrow. Prep days for you hour are November 10, 13, 14. Presentation days will be November 15 & 20.

3 & 4: We resumed vocab experts with 4 new words today, which means we will sneak in 4 more tomorrow. Then, we watched this video to look at how pathos can involve the subject and the audience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mscduVYpidA. The first time I watched this clip, the tears were flowing! For the rest of the time, you worked on your group presentations next week. We will determine your the schedule of presentations tomorrow. Even if you are fifth in line, you will still need to be prepared in case of emergency absence.

7: We resumed vocab experts with 4 new words today, looked at pathos via advertisements and video (see link above for a viewing), and assigned the current event/rhetorical analysis group project. You will be preparing for this project during class time on November 10, 13, 14. You will be presenting on November 15 & 20.
