Download the prompt for the optional Kennedy essay here. Make sure to go to page 10 and do both pages.
Given the somewhat strange snow day, a few revisions to our schedule for AP:
Monday: Sanders revisions still due (in class, attached to old copy and checklist); Vocab #19, reading assignment for Friday
Wednesday: Rhetorical device 2/3 due in class, printed.
Don’t forget the Sanders essay is due Sunday at noon.
Do an excellent job. Don’t forget to master the topic sentence structure, offer a STAMPy intro, and provide insightful analysis.
For the next few weeks, we’ll be working on two major projects: reading and discussing Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra and learning how to write effective synthesis essays. All the material you’ll need for both can be found on these two web pages:
- Antony and Cleopatra
- Synthesis Essays
The New York Times has a story today about the motorist guides for African-Americans that we discussed in class last week. Really interesting look at that time.
You can also check out the New York Public Library, which has a digital collection of the guidebooks which include Montana in their later editions.
