Literature and Writing:
We will begin a new unit this week, focusing on argumentative techniques in literature, the communication around us and our writing. We will discuss and practice gathering evidence to support an argument using a variety of methods, including visuals and advertising.
Students will take a pre-assessment on Monday to allow us to evaluate their knowledge of argumentative techniques.
