well, AP'ers you need extra credit as well...so...here it is:
at some point over the break, I want you to figure out the SOAPS for a family gathering, OR find 1 item in your life that is a visual argument. for example...if you're sitting with your family having dinner jot down what you see and work it into a SOAPS analysis, or,find one thing that you own that is making a visual argument...maybe you have a t-shirt with a funny logo or saying on it...maybe you have a poster that noone else understands...what is the message that's being sent. ok? ok. (ms. pavon, i know you have a shirt you can use for this)

  1. the poem i picked is titled For a reason by Jose Carlos Cotto. in this i believe that he writing about how so many people live holding grudges and seeing the negative things in life that it isn't in till that he lets go of that anger and everything else that he is what has happen has happen for bets and that with out he wouldn't be the person he is today.he would a totally different person. that he is thankful for everything that has happen to him in his life because now he is living a good life.-alex
