Scenario: You are presenting your end-of-class celebration plans to a jury whose sole purpose is to approve or reject end-of-class celebration plans. This jury has decided many such cases, so it is your job to make your case compelling, engaging, exciting, unique, and argumentatively sound.
Toward that goal, and in three fully-developed paragraphs, please address the prompt questions .
A special note: While you should employ pre-writing, planning, and drafting techniques, please use a separate document or notebook for those pre-writing, planning, and stages. The final draft of your 3 exam paragraphs should be the only items you submit.
Paragraph 1: Paragraph is well developed and expansive and describes how the student will celebrate finishing the class. The paragraph employs specific, granular detail, richly describing one specific celebration, or richly describing several celebratory actions the student will be taking in the coming week or weeks.
Paragraph 2: In a rich, detailed, paragraph, student employs logos, ethos, pathos, and kairos to argue for the type of celebration chosen. Student demonstrates the sound use of all four of these appeals.
Paragraph 3: In a rich, detailed paragraph, student correctly and aptly applies the Toulmin Model to establish common ground with the jury and to address at least one possible counter argument the jury might forward. The student very thoroughly and logically applies concession and refutation to that counter argument. The student demonstrates a sound understanding of establishing common ground, identifying counter arguments, and applying rebuttal methods.
