For Wednesday, you need to write a two-paragraph reflection on the (+) and (-) found at the top of your rubric.  For each paragraph, use textual evidence from your op-ed.

__________________ AN IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO IMPROVE THEIR OP-ED GRADES

COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING TASKS:
  1. Write your reflection on your Google Doc (see description above).
  2. If pathos, logos, or ethos were one of your (-) challenges, you need to demonstrate that you understand how to use these techniques in your Google Doc reflection by revising and typing new persuasive op-ed sections into your Doc.
  3. If informal register was one of your (-) challenges, you need to rewrite one of your paragraphs in your Google Doc to demonstrate that you understand how to shift your register for different audiences.
  4. Complete your revisions below your reflection and bring your essay to our opportunity period conference.

Sample revisions (to be typed in your Google Doc) –

Original Logos- Second hand smoke kills 50,000 Colombians each year.
Revision - Governments have a responsibility to protect their citizens.  50,000 Colombians died of lung cancer as a result of second hand smoking last year.  Therefore, the Colombian government has a responsibility to ban smoking in public places.     


Circled Issue – You where dead.
Revision – You were dead.
