TV PILOT/"I HAVE A DREAM" ANNOTATION

SENIORS: For inspiration, we watched a short segment of the writers from Breaking Bad discussing their process when writing as a team.  Remember to structure your 22 minute TV pilot into 4 segments with the first and last segments being the longest.

SOPHOMORES: We continued annotating Dr. King's I Have a Dream speech.  You should already have annotations for Logos, Pathos, Ethos, Inclusion, and Allusion.  Today we focused on Metaphor, Simile, Repetition, and Text Structure.  A side note about Allusion: we discovered the allusion to Shakespeare's Richard III in class, so you will have to find a different allusion on your own.  This should not be too difficult; remember what Dr. King did for a living and you should find many allusions.  The annotation work needs to be completed by this Wednesday at the end of the period.
