18 and 19 November

AP Language

Great work today y'all as we looked at Andrew Carnegie and his "Gospel of Wealth". I hope that you'll be taking some of these ideas forward from Carnegie and Didion as we begin our work with The Great Gatsby. 

Next class we'll delve into our project on rhetorical analysis. We'll overview the project and then take time to work. You'll not have any work over break - it's against FCPS policy to assign work over breaks. If you have any missing assignments lingering, this weekend provides a perfect opportunity to complete those tasks.

I'll have all of your work scored soon. If there is anything that you would like to resubmit, we can discuss that after Thanksgiving.

Today was a day for writing! We looked at sentence starters, organization, and structure in order to complete our paragraphs for our soundtrack project. I hope that you find the resource that I gave you in class helpful. One thing that I like to do as I write is to create sentence starters with blanks and then fill in those blanks as I write. Remember that you can always change the templates, but use them to start to help you get comfortable.

The project is due at the end of next class. Next class will also be our catch-up day since we're at the end of the unit. If you have anything missing for this unit I would suggest completing it this weekend so that you can focus on your project in class on our last day before break.
