 Today we learned that when presenting an argument, it is vitally important to know your audience. if you say something wrong or offensive you could completely ruin your whole argument and turn everyone in the audience against you. We also started working on a sheet where we use either logos, pathos, or ethos to try to convince an audience. You need to adapt your argument based on the audience you are speaking to. My day today has been good so far, I have nothing after school so I am planning on just relaxing and doing homework. I also need to finish up my National Honor Society application.

We defined the words, wrote some synonyms and antonyms, as well as filled in sentences using the vocab words.  Reflection: I enjoyed this class because it was fairly simple so I was able to finish quickly. Because I finished early I was able to do make-up work with the remaining time.

I also thought that the questions weren't that difficult, but they still offered a challenge.
