In class on Friday, you will complete self-reflection notes before handing in essay #1. Afterwards, you will be given a handout for the new schedule. You will notice that there are some readings that you must do BEFORE coming to class on Monday. All three of the readings can be found in our text, This I Believe. You can also find the readings online (click on the links):
"Be Cool to the Pizza Dude" by Sarah Adams (pages 7-9)
"In Giving I Connect to Others" by Isabel Allende (pages 13-15)
"A Goal of Service to Humankind" by Anthony Fauci (pages 65-67)
For each reading, what would you say is the argument/ position/ purpose/ claim/ thesis? How does each writer support his/ her thoughts? Which of the three is more effective? Which one are you most persuaded by?
