How are persuasive messages shaped by our beliefs and our audience?
Objective: Students will select persuasive topics that address needs they see in the world.
1. Language Lab #22 (Copy the definition from the 2nd slide and create your own example.)
2. We read independently for 20 minutes.
3. We added a vocabulary word from our reading to our word lists (WN p. 61).
4. We completed a reading log using a reading strategy of our choice.
5. WN #31: This I Believe. (Check out this essay project. Then free-write for 10 minutes about things you believe.)
6. We watched clips of speeches from several movies and practiced using the rhetorical triangle to analyze them, identifying the speaker, audience, purpose, and message/claim.
7. We received our persuasive speech assignment sheet.
For next time: Begin working on the proposal sheet for your speech.
