Sean Patrick Scully III (In Relief of Robert Gennat) - 17 October 2016

Hello fellow classmates,
In relief of Robert Gennat, who was absent today, I will inform you of today's class, and the occurrences within our classroom. Our wonderful teacher, Mr.Rivers, began the class by reiterating what we must know to effectively succeed in tomorrow's in-class exam. This included; What is the text's purpose? and how does he accomplish it?; Identify the rhetoric and how it changes the text's appeal;Identify how the change in rhetoric changes the tone of the reading. To further prepare us for the summative tomorrow, we were given practice that involved selecting a situation of our own, to prepare a persuasive speech for, using different rhetoric appeals. We all began using a logos, or logical appeal within our speech, and after using two pieces of evidence in that, we adapted that speech to either pathos or ethos, whichever one we chose. Mr.Rivers walked around the classroom to ensure our success in this preparation activity, and now each student within the classroom is effectively prepared to succeed in the following day's exam.

  1. Nice responses here, Sean. Great blend of your personal involvement throughout the class with the class-wide activities. This would be a great resource for students who were absent. Don't forget to include an image or other piece of media!
