I hope everyone had a relaxing and fun Thanksgiving Break. Here's what's on the agenda for the week:
MONDAY/TUESDAY: Journal warm-up. Receive Vocab #9 sheet for quiz at the end of the week. Frederick Douglass catch-up and reading. Syntax notes: definition and effects on an audience.
Due: Frederick Douglass reading through the beginning 10 pages of Chapter 10. Bring your book to class if you have a copy.
The final draft of your first rhetorical analysis essay should have been uploaded to Turnitin.com at the beginning of the break. There was a good deal of class time and access to Chromebooks for this. If you haven't uploaded your paper (or emailed it if you experienced problems), please do so right away for partial credit.
