Argument vs Persuasion Powerpoints

 WELCOME BACK!

Today we start a new unit: Argument.  Different ideas come to mind when the word "argument" is used.  Look at the following two powerpoints (here for powerpoint #1) and (here for powerpoint #2) and take notes in your notebook; you can write Cornell Notes or make a T-Chart, whichever works for you.  We will be spending the next few weeks analyzing articles and speeches in preparation for the end-of-the-unit assignment: debate.

If you took a copy of Metamorphosis, the extra credit work is due Friday, Jan.17.  You must turn in the copy of the story to get the credit.

Also, work on finishing your Independent Reading Book, as a book review will be due on Friday, Jan. 17.
