Logos, Pathos, and Ethos: March 5, 2019

Focus: What are logos, pathos, and ethos, and how do we use them to persuade our audience?


If you have your essay printed, please turn it in at the beginning of class.

1. Warming up with a partner interview on rhetorical devices:
  • What's logos?
  • What's pathos?
  • What's ethos?
  • What do you understand about why we use these two devices?
  • What have you always been kind of confused about?
2. Watching Amy Cuddy's Ted Talk on Power Posing while tracking logos, pathos, and ethos
  • Get together with two people who tracked the other two devices and fill each other in.
3. Returning to your banned book speech outline and figuring out how to incorporate logos, pathos, and ethos

HW:
1. For TODAY: Please PRINT and turn in your word trace essay no later than 4:00. You will not be allowed to leave class to print, so take care of it at home, during an off hour, before school, during lunch, or after school.

2. For THURSDAY: Have your speech roughly ready so that you can practice delivering it to a partner in class.

3. MONDAY: All students will present their banned book speeches to small groups.
