Tuesday, April 10 ~ Persuasion & Rhetoric

GRAMMAR
  • First, let's read over the answer key to the ELP Mix up. Then, as Journal 32, record one argument (you may choose them from the bullets) for each of the three methods of persuasion. Choose the ones that were most crafty or surprising so that you will have creative examples to look back on in forming your own arguments. For each one, record a simple explanation of why you deem this one particularly persuasive. Click here for the key:  http://examples.yourdictionary.com/examples-of-ethos-logos-and-pathos.html
  • Impromptus: Over the next few weeks, we will complete two-minute impromptu speeches for a ten point grade. Your only goal will be to continue speaking for the entire two minutes. But first we must make our topics! Please consider things that you might wish to draw from a hat. Create two impromptus slips before the fun can begin. PG 13 please! Try to make these interesting...something we would want to hear about.
  • Who will go first? 
HW: Find the most persuasive commercial you can. Record the link and the reason you believe it is so persuasive. Turn in your links and ideas here.
