I'll see 2Black on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
I'll see 2Green and 4Green on Tuesday and Thursday
Goals for this week:
- Ascertain that we understand, can find, and can create language with the rhetorical appeals of ethos, pathos, and logos.
- Draft and peer conference on our persuasive speeches (introduce the bless, address, press version of peer review).
- Hand out Fahrenheit 451 for those who haven't already taken it.
- Update your Khan Academy "level up" information for SAT QotD section.
Monday Feb. 8, 2016 - 2Black
- We'll have 20-30 minutes of "catch up" time to annotate the speeches 2.20-2.24 (skipping 2.21) for ethos, pathos, and logos. Refer to your notes for the "sound byte" versions of these.
- We'll also review the Harry Potter, Scooby Doo, and Star Wars versions of these rhetorical appeals, to make them stick.
- Once we've reviewed the speeches for rhetorical appeals and persuasive elements, we'll begin drafting our own persuasive speeches.
- I'll hand out a Khan Academy progress log for the SAT QotD section of your notebooks. Record your "level up" information on this. I'll be checking levels on Thursday/Friday for homework credit.
Homework: work on leveling up in four more areas (depending on how much you've already leveled up). Keep track of this on the log I handed out.
