The Three Appeals

We look at the following powerpoint:

http://fyc.usf.edu/Documents%20Social%20and%20Political%20Arguments/Logos%20Ethos%20Pathos%20Powerpoint.ppt from here.

You do the handout.

You get out your draft from yesterday. Either label items in the draft that already are examples of pathos, ethos or logos, OR make notes ON the draft about possible ways to ADD IN material that would be employing the three rhetorical appeals.

You are writing this paper in order to inform your audience about the problem AND to persuade us to care about it and help solve it.

Homework:
 
1. Have Draft 2 ready for tomorrow.
 
2. TWFTD: rhetorical in OED.

Draft #1 Problem Solution

We check the apostrophe handout.

You fill out the writer's page.  I pass out comment sheets and you exchange papers. 

PLEASE pay attention to the input you get. I am grading some papers where students marked things or made comments that would have improved the grade on the paper.

Homework:

1. Improve this draft. Draft #2 is due Friday.

2. TWFTD: revise in OED.

Apostrophes and Writing Your Draft

Apostrophes! pages 420-421 in Everyday Writer.

What are the meanings of these sentences? Copy and explain:

My brother's dog's food is rotting.

 

My brothers' dog's food is rotting.

 

My brothers' dogs' food is rotting.

 

My brother's dogs' food is rotting.

 

 

Possession, yes, but what about these words?  his, hers, theirs, ours, yours, its, whose.

Special confusion points go to its, your, their and whose because of it's, you're, they're and who's.

Do the handout. Then work on your draft for tomorrow.
