Power Pose Tonight!

Standard: Power Pose!  In addition to reading and reading and reading the passage/poem/excerpt tonight, be sure to power pose so that your confidence and testosterone are up.  That will help you present with enthusiasm, passion, confidence and authenticity in a comforting and captivating way.

Can't wait to see how you do tomorrow.  You will be successful or else you will be faking it until you make it!

Honors: After our parallel structure discussion and our anaphora reminder, we jumped back into our Pitts and Hiaasen articles.  Thank you to all of the students who demonstrated their honors class pedigree by watching the video, looking up the O'Reilly statistics and researching the nine names alluded to by Pitts.  We wrapped up the Pitts discussion and then brought in Hiaasen.  This time I had you think/discuss/write about these three prompts:

1. How does this article mesh with the Pitts article?

2. He ends with a sentiment similar to Pitts, yet he approaches it differently. Explain the differences between the two angles the men use.


3. Explain why each is suited for its author.

While we didn't get a chance to fully discuss the prompts we will do so tomorrow and then discover what I mean by "The Next Step".
