October 18

AGENDA:

1. Journal Write using any 10 vocabulary words addressing this question:
In Julius Caesar, the movie, Caesar says that "we keep ourselves small and are not inspired." Do you agree? Why or why not? What does he mean?

2. Discuss the two speeches in small groups. How are they similar? How are they different? Which one is stronger? Why? What parts make one stronger than the other?
 

3. In what ways do politicians and advertisers use mob mentality and emotions to try and persuade you to do what they want? Which of the tactics that Brutus or/and Antony use in their funeral speech swayed you the most? Did you find yourself agreeing with one, both, or neither of them? Ethos, Pathos, Logos
