Eisenhower and D-Day Photo Analysis

I can analyze texts by reading closely and answering questions on rhetoric and style and then draw comparisons between these texts.

1. Class brainstorm: Should we have entered WWII? Why or why not?
2. Eisenhower's message to troops
Read the letter silently and annotate the text for persuasive techniques.
→ What is your initial response to the letter? Be specific. (First reading questions)
  1. Subject:
  2. Occassion:
  3. Audience:
  4. Purpose:
  5. Speaker:
  6. Tone:

→ Second reading questions (orally and mark text)
3. D-Day Photo Analysis

 4. Eisenhower's Farewell Address
Homework: Finish reading this address. Answer the “Second Reading” Questions on separate paper.
Remember: rough draft of Synthesis paper due Friday!!
