AGENDA 10/3

Reread "Letter to President Pierce, 1855" by Chief Seattle in the McGraw-Hill Reader.  Work on R1-R2 of the FLTs for Rhetorical Analysis as a class.

HW:  Reread "Letter to President Pierce, 1855" by Chief Seattle in the McGraw-Hill Reader and be prepared to discuss the rhetorical strategies (e.g., simile, rhetorical questions, metaphor, diction of _____, etc.) that Chief Seattle uses to convey his claim and/or tone(s).

Also, take a look at the California Official Voter Guide that might be hanging around your house to familiarize yourself with the CA propositions. And don't forget about independent reading--500 pages this grading period!
