This week in English

This week in English I learned how to set up a blog and how it works. The class also learned what rhetoric means which is the ability to discern the available means of persuasion in any given situation. It is important to know who your audience is. We viewed advertisements and cartoons in order to determine the rhetoric situation. We went over what a thesis statement is an why it is important to know. It's a big part of your paper and basically it summarizes what you are going to write about. Even though I have been taught this before Im glad we reviewed over these things because having a different teacher, I now know what she expects from me and I understand the subject better, especially with some of the examples she shows us.
