Recap: After reading the Declaration of Independence yesterday, we began applying this idea of rhetoric to our own, personal declarations of independence today. Due to the altered class schedule, we worked on this writing in class.
1. Decide what you are going to declare your independence from.
2. Follow the writing prompt for your personal declarations that has been shared with you.
3. Double space type your prompt in MLA format.
4. Have your declaration peer edited.
5. Show it to me before the end of class.
6. Print and submit for tomorrow, Friday, April 4th.
Your personal declaration should follow the below format:
I. Preamble that states the general problem. (5-6 sentences).
-Paragraph format
- Include ethos, logos, pathos
II. List of offenses this thing has done against you.
- List
-At least 10 grievances
III. Conclusion that ties everything together, and states what it is you want. (5-6 sentences).
-Paragraph form
These declarations will be presented in class beginning tomorrow. If for any reason you are not in class, the paper should be sent to me. It will be marked late if it is not. You must also present the paper. If you are absent when we present, you will be required to present when you return to class.
You may also see the rubric and peer edit check list to make sure all parts of your assignment have been included.
Have a nice evening!
