Wednesday Warriors

Anna Quindlen's essay Between the Sexes, A Great Divide is what we used today as an example of the rhetorical mode of compare and contrast.  Make sure you are creating and taking notes on all of the modes.  Use the Readings for Writers book.  It's quite handy.

I'm in the holiday mood, so I will likely be posting more thoughtful gift ideas just for fun.  And I think Friday's SAS should be thematically linked to "Traditions Around the World".  Use that as your guide.

I'll see y'all on the flipside.

xoxo

p.s. - shoutout to YOU, YOU know who YOU are, right???

p.p.s. - I want everyone to comment.  I'm checking....

    Well I didn't feel like commenting today because I feel that silence says so much already but since you asked us to comment....there you go. Have a nice evening and morning and eerything in between.
