Wednesday, October 30

The Plan:



The students are continuing on in their unit over persuasive techniques used in advertising. They will be viewing commercials and comparing/contrasting the techniques used to persuade the target audiences. Watch the blog for a homework assignment requiring students to analyze a TV commercial and answer questions about it in their study guide.
Completed Writing Warm-Up study packets will be coming home this Thursday, and the quiz over the packet will be next Tuesday, November 5. I will hold the after-school study session for this quiz from 3:30 to 4:00 on Monday, November 4.
