Writing:

• Choose your peer review option
• “This I No Longer Believe” first drafts are due! If you chose the anonymous option, go to Blackboard and find the “Peer Review” tab, then follow the instructions. If you chose the non-anonymous option, post your draft here on the course site under the category “Unit 1 Work.” (It’s ok to post it privately if you only want to share it with your peer review group during class.)
• Complete the Hyperbole and Understatement exercises in the book and post your answers as a comment here.
• Complete the Namecalling and Bandwagon activity.
