Wednesday, November 19
Using student outlines & the model outline distributed Monday, we examined certain aspects of students's persuasive speeches, focusing especially on striving for unity and continuity, and on the use of the concluding paragraphs to achieve that end.
HW due Thursday:
First draft of the speech, to be "peer edited" in class. You will read it aloud to your partner, and you should practice reading it aloud tonight.
Extra credit opportunity:
5 pts. for attending the school musical, Little Shop of Horrors, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
Up to an additional 5 pts. for a one-page review.
