Today's Learning Goal:

 * Apply Aristotle's three persuasive appeals (ethos, pathos, and logos) to analyze an advertisement.**
 * 1) Work with your group to analyze the ad you selected last class. ( Here's the link if you didn't Find an ad.)
 * 2) Create a three-column chart (ethos, logos, pathos): Select details from the ad, assign them to the appropriate column, jot what these details mean--what persuasive appeal is the author using? Be prepared to share your analysis.
 * Who is the target audience?
 * What's the overall purpose?
 * What appeals does the ad use?
 * What's the overall message--as evidenced by the appeals--of the ad?
 * 1) Review sample written analysis.
 * 2) Each individual write an analysis, publish to your blog, and share your post by copying and pasting the link to your blog post in the [|discussion tab] (You must be logged in to reply).
 * 3) Reading & Journaling Time
 * Mrs. Huff's sample journal.

Homework:

 * Complete blog post analyzing the ad. Be sure to post the link in the discussion tab BEFORE coming to class Friday.
 * Read and journal.
