Today, chapters 8 & 9 of Animal Farm were due. to work with your understanding of the book, and to allow you to practice your ever-improving ability to employ logos effectively, we asked you to choose a claim related to the reading, to come up with three criteria to define the relative term(s) in the claim, and to write two logos-based paragraphs, one for each criterion. You worked with focus and absorption on this for most of the period. For a look at the assignment, click on the link below:

Guidelines for Book Review Assignments
(due every other Thursday, beginning Feb. 4)
1. Your review must be on a book that you have read within the last six months.
2. Every OTHER review may be on a graphic novel.
3. Your review must be at least two paragraphs long, and may be longer.
4. Each paragraph must be 5-8 sentences.
5. Review must contain enough of a summary so that someone who is reading your review, but knows nothing about the book, will get a good sense of what the book is about. However, it should not be all summary; a review is mostly your opinion of the book.
6. Don't just state your opinion- explain WHY you feel the way you feel about the book.
See the link below for some examples:
