January 28

Students had the first 30 minutes of class to read, annotate, and respond to today's article of the week in their writer's notebooks, then read independently.

Today's Article: "What Is the Coronavirus and How Worried Should We Be?"

In their groups, students discussed the articles about health that they found. Groups selected one article to share in a discussion on Canvas, then students worked independently to read and comment on 2 other articles. This will be the starting point for class tomorrow.

Students continued taking notes over argument and persuasion (notes are linked on the Argument and Persuasion page on Canvas, slides 13-27). We looked at examples of logos, ethos, and pathos in action.
