Tuesday
1. Students completed a quick Rhetoric Skill Check at the beginning of class for review.
2. We examined more images in pairs and completed this handout: Image Analysis. If you were absent or if you didn’t finish in class you can view the powerpoint with the images here: Image Analysis Powerpoint.
3. Students watched Obama’s response to the Eric Garner case:
As they watched and listened, students needed to annotate the speech for the three different pleas (pathos, logos, ethos) and answer the seven questions: Obama Response Garner.
HW: Finish the Obama Response Garner worksheet for tomorrow. OPTIONAL BUT RECOMMENDED: Revise your Dangerous Words Essay for next Monday.
Absentees: Complete the Collaborative Essay Reflection on a separate sheet of paper and turn in. Turn in your Body Paragraph Outline from your Collaborative Essay, even if it is not complete. Get W20 from Ms. G when you return. Complete the Rhetoric Skill Check and the Image Analysis at home with the help of this website. The image analysis PPT is here: Image Analysis Powerpoint. Finally, watch the above video and complete the Obama Response to Garner worksheet.
