*Bell Ringer: The Individual and Society: In writer’s notebook, write a quick list of ways that an individual can interact with society. Think of these ideas: can individuals change society? Can society change individuals? Can you exist without society? Can society exist without individuals? Are there different definitions of society that matter here?
*Writer’s Workshop Time –see next slide
*Patrick Henry Speech –I’d highlight in three or four different colors, if possible {DUE WEDNESDAY}
*Three rhetorical questions and the assumed answers from the speech. Why include these questions? “Is this the part of wise men…” he wants listeners to think that, no, wise men search for freedom with open eyes, seeing truth.
*Allusion: find another mention of a literary/historical/biblical event. Any thoughts as to why it would be included? Take a guess…
*How does this fit in the topic (the individual and society)?
*How do you see themes of independence or freedom in this speech? (Themes of the era)“Speech in the Virginia Convention”
*Small and Large Group on Patrick Henry (on Wednesday)
