This week we will have our final commercial presentations. Of those students signed up for this date, I believe the only ones still viable are Mariam and Himaal. I will then put you into groups to discuss your answers to "Death's Head Revisited." Each group will be responsible for thoroughly answering one of the questions for the class.

We will then discuss pro/con essays. We will begin with "The Case for Firearms," and "Why Handguns Must be Outlawed." (these are on pages 70-75 of the supplemental Reading Package. Please print or have electronic access to them.) These will be analyzed in your groups.

We will also have a practice MLA exercise for points.

On Wednesday, your ESSAY #3 OUTLINE IS DUE. It must be typed.

We will have Journal #7, Free Community College.

In our groups we will analyze another pro/con argument "Should Soda Be Excluded" (RP, p. 79-80. Print or have access.)

I will introduce the debate prompt, and you will meet in teams to discuss possible debate topics.
