I like chocolate and ice cream and babies

Today AP students did the following:

Received Plato's "Allegory of a Cave" to have read and annotated for Thursday;

Received a writing assignment (a satire) for Friday; learned about polysyndetons and asyndetons.

Please remember that you have a test on "A Modest Proposal" on Monday; 

"Let them eat dog" on Tuesday;

"Allegory of a Cave" on Thursday; and

Your satire is due on Friday.

If you missed class today, copied below is an explanation of polysyndeton and asyndeton:

Polysyndeton – I like Miseal and Michael and Robert and Zulfiya.  (effects: slows the reader; makes the list feel endless (spontaneous multiplicity)

Asyndeton – (prefix “a” means without or not) – I like Miseal, Michael, Robert, Zulfiya.  (effects: speeds the reader up; makes the list feel endless)

I like Miseal and  Michael and Robert and Zulfiya.  They are intelligent, mature, diligent.

Seventh period took a vocabulary test, which you may finish the first 15 minutes of class on Monday.

Have a great weekend!
