Oops! I got busy yesterday morning and forgot to post the assignment for last night's homework. We have been looking at "beauty" and developing thesis sentences: analogies, definitions, consequences and testimonies. Yesterday we used these sentences to write an introductory paragraph on "beauty" per Alice Walker. The homework was to bring in an ad selling beauty. Tomorrow's homework is to bring in a photo of someone or something we consider beautiful.
Homework last night was to post thesis sentences: a best of. Students posted the sentences they liked or felt strongly about. I actually requested a few such as Daniel's, Melissa's, Rudy's, and others. Students were also to post their introductory paragraphs. For those who didn't share, I didn't have a record of their presence :-)
Students were to continue to read Walker and get up to Chapter 40. We are finished with the book Monday and the essay is due shortly afterwards. I asked students to bring in Letters from Mississippi. We'll postpone this until we finish The Color Purple. I am not going to photocopy the book, so get a copy of Letter's from Mississippi, from the library if you can't afford a copy of your own. Ask the COA librarian to purchase a copy for you. It is available on Amazon and at Marcus Books they have it on back order with the publisher.
Today, we are supposed to spend time discussing the text. We will also talk about inductive and deductive arguments and fallacies. I have a handout for you called: Propaganda Techniques. I will show you a video next week on Argumentation. You will need to bring your grammar style books to reference the section argument. I will have copies from my book for those who have a different book.
A few of us are going to see Sonny's Blues at the Lorraine Hansberry theatre in San Francisco tomorrow evening. I have 9 tickets for Rudy, Makda, Kenton, Angel, Theresa (2), Karl, and myself. The show begins at 8 p.m. Next Thursday, March 6, we will got to the Marsh, also in San Francisco to see Come Home. It begins at 8 p.m. and is 70 minutes long. We're going to get together earlier to have dinner. We can do the same next week. We'll meet at Lake Merritt BART at 6 p.m. 2/28 and 3/6.

Alice Walker has overcome many struggles that she has faced throughout her life; racism, pregnancy, and just life in general. But she has yet to overcome one, beauty. After the BB gun incident Walker was never the same eccentric girl. But beauty should not only be defined as physical. Beauty is like music it lies in the ears of the beholder.

It is an amzing post in this the writer talks about the beauty of many things. In my point, everything of the word has a strange type of beauty of the words. But these type of beauty http://www.sopwritingservice.net/our-sop-writing-services/public-health-statement-of-purpose/ feels some special person who has a deep interest in the things of the worlds.
