Argument Review and Rhetorical Terms

1. Present Rhetorical Terms
2. Review Arguments
     a. Warm-up: Review scoring rubric and sample essays together--discuss scoring/tips
     b. Self: Underline where you did the following...

A CLEAR, PRECISE POSITION ON THE TOPIC OR ISSUE
CONSIDER THE ALTERNATIVE VIEWPOINTS--include a counterargument. Sometimes strong essays are 50/50--don’t be afraid to spend time on this.
DEVELOP EXAMPLES!!!! This is KEY, my friends! It is better to develop two examples at length than to use 3 less developed (more like a list) examples. Examples can come from history, books, news, shows, real life, personal or hypothetical.
This is your chance to STRUT THAT RHETORICAL STUFF!! This essay is the most conducive to developing your own voice, sounding authentic, and showing off your sense of style just a little bit. Try to get into it and “sound” like you’re invested!

c. Partner: score using rubric and leave notes for suggestions

3. Argument Prompt #2: 30 minutes
