Welcome to class!

Hi!  Welcome to class for today!  In my absence, you will be working on analyzing a new piece, a speech given by Queen Elizabeth.  You should work SILENTLY & INDEPENDENTLY for the first 40 minutes of class.
Your instructions are as follows:
1.  Please read and annotate the Queen Elizabeth speech.  Consider all aspects given for the context to add to your interpretation of the speech.
2.  Next, create 1 sample multiple choice question (C) per category (main idea, rhetoric, meaning and purpose, structure and organization, and rhetorical mode).
3.  Finally, create a plan in response to the following possible rhetorical analysis essay prompt:  analyze the way that Queen Elizabeth uses language and rhetorical techniques to achieve her purpose.

At 1:20, you may get together in your groups from yesterday and share questions you created and what you noticed about language and rhetorical techniques being used in the speech.

Please turn in your rhetorical analysis essay plan and your created questions to the substitute at the end of the class period.  Also, please turn in your Thoreau rhetorical analysis essay plan.

Thanks!
