Rhetorical Analysis Formative Assessment

Greeting:

Students turned in their min-research (trial write up) on Monday 2/3 and will spend the rest of the week on learning/refining their rhetorical analysis writing skills. On Wednesday 2/5, student will write the AP style rhetorical essay in class based on a released AP prompt and we will use their writing to assess their strengths and target their weaknesses. Students got the prompt to take home and read. In class today, they will draft and revise their essays. The rest of this week and next, well into our after break period, we will learn writing and feedback strategies that will help students improve their thinking, reading, and writing in this genre.
