AP English III
Apologies for not getting to the peer editing of our introduction pieces today in class. I just got so caught up with "On Compassion" and the elements of RHETORIC that I lost all track of time. For next class you will definitely want to arrive with a complete version of your rough draft. I'll be available next week for conferencing if you would like. In addition, I would like for you to complete the multiple choice practice for "On Compassion" - give yourselves just ten minutes to complete the questions. It is open book, so use the text. In addition, be sure that you mark any words that are new to you so that you can begin your vocabulary logs.
Lastly, I want you to reread the Introduction and the chapter called "Harvest of Shame" from The Working Poor. As you reread and reannotate these pieces I would ask that you apply what we learned today in class about the rhetorical appeals: How do you see ethos, pathos, and logos at play in Shipler's writing? How does this help to make his argument more effective?

At this point in class we have reviewed letters in groups one, two and three. You now know the majority of the alphabet. Next class we will finish with our alphabet study and begin working on writing words. Tonight for homework I would like for you to complete the "Pre Lesson" handout to improve your handwriting. As you write, make sure to fill the line with the writing and also be sure that you are saying the letters, sounds and words as you write them. Saying as you write will help you to remember the sounds.
As a head's up - be aware that you will have your first quiz at the end of next week on the alphabet. Prepare yourselves accordingly.
