These speeches were given during the civil rights movement. They were meant to give equality to all men. Also, Dr. Kings speech was more memorable then President Kennedys.______________Thesis______________________________________ ___________________Topic Sentence_______________________________ Both Dr. King and President Kennedy used repetition to get their point across. They both wanted freedom for Negroes. Both of them mentioned that 100 years after slavery has ended Negroes are still not free. These similarities affect how the speeches came across. _________________Topic Sentence_______________________________ Kennedys was monotone, low, and didnt grab the reader as well as Dr. Kings intense, determined, and stern tone. Dr. Kings speech had an emotional appeal, it pulled your emotions, while John F. Kennedy was logical appeal and stated facts. Martin Luther King Jr. repeated phrases that mattered like let freedom ring and Kennedy repeated not as important phrases like it ought to be possible. _________________Restate your thesis___________________________ They both had many similarities, for instance, they both used repeated phrases for emphasis. They also had some difference like Dr. King used emotional appeal and the president had a logical appeal. What made Dr. Kings speech more memorable was that he had an emotional appeal and it was faster, loud, and determined. B. Still and H.

Allusion means reference The difficulty with allusion is being familiar with all of the hidden meaning hidden behind the words Allusions are commonly made by the Bible, nursery rhymes, myths, famous fictional, or historical characters. Slide 35 Examples of Allusion Allusions in writing help the reader to visualize what's happening by evoking a mental picture. But the reader must be aware of the allusion and must be familiar with what it alludes to. Allusions are commonly made to the Bible, nursery rhymes, myths, famous fictional or historical characters or events, and Shakespeare. "As the cave's roof collapsed, he was swallowed up in the dust like Jonah, and only his frantic scrabbling behind a wall of rock indicated that there was anyone still alive". The allusion in the sentence above is to Jonah. The reader is expected to recognize the reference to Jonah and the whale, which should evoke an image of being 'swallowed alive'... in this case, behind a wall of dust and rock. Slide 36 Examples of Allusion "Christy didn't like to spend money. She was no Scrooge, but she seldom purchased anything except the bare necessities". Did you spot the allusion to Scrooge? That name should bring to mind an image of someone who 'pinches pennies' and hoards money with a passion. But the allusion only works if the reader is familiar with Charles Dickens' story 'A Christmas Carol'. In general, the use of allusions by an author shows an expectation that the reader is familiar with the references made, otherwise the effect is lost. A piece of writing with many allusions (some of which may be very obscure) will be very rich with evoked images, but will do nothing for a reader who is not well-read. Slide 37 Examples of Allusion See if you can spot the allusions in this paragraph: "Marty's presence at the dance was definitely a 'Catch 22' situation; if he talked to Cindy she'd be mad at him, but if he ignored her there'd be hell to pay. His anger bubbled to the surface. He realized that by coming to the dance he had brought his problems with him like a Trojan Horse, and he could only hope he would be able to keep them bottled up". Slide 38 Answer The first allusion is to the novel 'Catch 22' by Joseph Heller; this should suggest a situation where there is a problem with no right answer... whatever you do will be wrong. If you have read Heller's novel, you know exactly how Marty is feeling! The second reference is to the Trojan Horse from Virgil's Aeneid, which chronicles the Greeks conquering Troy by giving a gift of a horse to their enemies and filling the belly of the horse with warriors. A vivid image... if you recognize it. There is also a reference to 'hell', which evokes images from the Bible of something definitely unpleasant. Finally, there is a very subtle reference to 'bottling up' problems, which might suggest an image of tightly containing something, although there is no direct connection to anything. Slide 39 Life is but a Vapor What type of figurative language is the title of Chapter 5? What page is the biblical allusion in Chapter 5?

For example: The girl is at home, and tomorrow she is going to the amusement park. You can see that the amusement park is a phrase located in the second clause of the complete sentence above. Phrases act like parts of speech inside clauses. That is, they can act as nouns, adjectives, adverbs and so on. Slide 100 The CLAUSE Sentences can be broken down into clauses. For Example: The boy is going to the school, and he is going to eat there. This is a complete sentence composed of two clauses. There are mainly two types of clauses: independent clauses and subordinate clauses. Independent clauses act as complete sentences, while subordinate clauses cannot stand alone and need another clause to complete their meaning. For example: Independent clause: The boy went to the school. Subordinate clause: After the boy went to the school Slide 101 Mini Lesson on Clauses Writer's Toolkit: Independent Clauses Writer's Toolkit: Dependent Clause Slide 102 Review/Reinforce Clauses Clause Exchange Game Quia - Independent, Dependent Clauses Practice Quia - Independent, Dependent Clauses Practice Locate and write down 2 examples of each where a subordinating clause occurs at the beginning, middle, and at the end of a sentence found in Chapter 9 and 10 of While the World Watched Slide 103 Instruction on Misplaced/Dangling Modifiers Fun Examples Misplaced Modifiers and Dangling Participles Funny Misplaced Modifiers Misplaced Modifiers Quiz Misplaced Modifiers Slide 104 Practice Misplaced/Dangling Modifiers Divide the class into small teams Each team will select a sentence from While the World Watched and turn it into a sentence with a misplaced modifier Next, have each team pass their creation to another team This team will illustrate the created sentence just as it is, then resolve it. The resolving team will write the misplaced modifier of the created sentence on a smaller sheet of paper and attach their illustrations by using a short piece of string, hence dangling modifier. Hang the dangling modifiers in the room or hallway
