MAKE UP TESTS and QUIZZES
All make-ups must be taken as soon as you return to school. Make-up tests and quizzes are always different versions of the original regardless of why you were absent. It is the student’s responsibility to make arrangements for make up assignments, tests, and quizzes. Thank you!

Analyzing A Documentary
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6CKS0W15cg
We are currently analyzing Michael Moore’s documentary Capitalism-A Love Story together in class. The chart attached is what we are using to organize our notes, and will be collected for a grade at the conclusion of the documentary. The version we are watching in class is the original I purchased on Amazon Prime, but if you need to catch up at home, perhaps using this version on Youtube will help. We will be analyzing a few different texts and will be quizzed on them. All this is in preparation for writing a rhetorical analysis essay. Please refer to the Analysis of Argument PP to review.
