Wednesday, Nov. 6 Agenda


  • Bell Ringer: 60 minutes Writer’s Workshop
    • Collect paper (paperclip rubric to paper and works cited page)
  • Blogging About Lit 
    • Calendar Check
    • Time to write first post (due tomorrow) or read (independent book or “Speech in Virginia Convention”
  • “Speech in Virginia Convention” due tomorrow
    • Three rhetorical questions and the assumed answers from the speech.  Why include these questions? EX: “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”
