Hello all,
Our persuasive letters are due one week from today. We will be covering embedded documentation in class on A day, and will have our second workshop in class on B day. Make sure to bring an updated draft of your letters for that day (either Wednesday or Thursday)!
We will also do a short review of persuasive elements as we're coming down the stretch for this assignment. However, if there is anything that you are still unclear on regarding ethos, pathos, logos, concession/refutation, etc. make sure to set some time aside from your schedule to see me before or after school. Additionally, you can check out these websites for additional info on ethos, logos, and pathos.

Happy writing, folks. The drafts are reading well, and I can't wait to see the final drafts next week.
If you have read this far, congratulations... I'd like to introduce another bonus opportunity. The sheets that Forsberg and I have been handing out for The Great Gatsby are green on purpose. The first person from each section to respond to me correctly with the reason why will earn 5 bonus formative.
