Last night's work: Finished reading to the top of page 20 in Chapter 1 of The Language of Composition

Bellringer 1: What characteristics of The Joker's speech and delivery might be persuasive? Do you trust him? Why or why not?

Activity 2: Re-read the King's Speech on pages 8-9. Then, with a partner, create a SOAPS chart (like the on on page 6) for the King's Speech.  (10 mins)

Discuss King's speech SOAPS as a class. (5 mins)

Watch the King's speech
Ethos as the credibility of the speaker or the shared values/ethics of  speaker and audience

Reading: What are the SOAPS of the image on 15? How does it appeal to logos, ethos, and pathos?


HW: AP Vocabulary Words 1-5 quiz for tomorrow: SOAPS words (Subject, Occasion, Audience, Purpose, Speaker).
