IN CLASS:
We finished our introductory speeches (there were four students who still needed to speak; one student will speak on Friday, at the beginning of class)
Then we discussed, as a class, some pros and cons of our beginning speech patterns, what we are noticing ourselves do that is not good, that IS good, and what are anxieties are, moving forward.
We discussed Chapter 1 and the Guided reading (that was homework for this class last week).
I passed-out the Chapter 2 Guided Reading Worksheet (THIS IS HOMEWORK FOR FRIDAY).
Then we went to the lab to complete a listening lab activity--via American Rhetoric (.com). There is a handout and self-evaluation that are due next class, if you did not finish.
Also, we will--I PROMISE--get to viewing our videos (via the Youtube links I sent to your student emails) and reflecting. This is a definite possibility second hour of class on Friday.
