Review-R19/R23 started
. All exit slip questions reviewed in class. Stanton uses more emotion in her speech because she is speaking to women at a women's rights convention. Emotion would appeal to them the most because they are by nature more emotional than they are logical. Also, she wants to get them to feel something about women's rights because they've remained passive for so long. If she can get them to feel angry, neglected, abused, oppressed, then they should want to also stand up and join her cause. King uses more logical argument because his audience is the government or those who can and do make laws. Obviously he uses more logic because they are lawmakers, and should be very rational, logically thinking beings. Emotion wouldn't work as well on this audience, but he still uses it a bit to appeal to their human nature.

Absent students choose persuasive topics for Performance Task 2-Unit 2-Social Conflict. Assignment, go ask 5 students for their opinion of your topic. If they do not agree with you, get a reason why. Each person or group presents their topic and how many people agree/disagree with them. This is important so you know what type of audience you will be persuading. If more than half of the class disagrees with you, your audience could be hostile, if most of the class agrees with you, you are dealing with a supportive audience. You must keep this in mind as you plan your presentation.
