Countdown to Paper One - Speech - Conventions and Close Reading

[@oxycleanmoron]

I always love your stuff, guys! Thank you for creating and sharing these resources! One pedantic suggestion for you and others considering rhetorical analysis, which I learned from a fellow teacher: it's not appeal "to" pathos, ethos, or logos--it's appeal "of" pathos, ethos, or logos. We employ pathos; we don't appeal to it. It itself is the appeal, not the subject of the appeal. An author appeals to their intended audience, not to the rhetorical appeal. Keep up the great work, guys!

Thanks for the clarification. This makes sense. We appreciate the feedback!

Awesome video my may 2022 exams are coming up can you guys also post a similar video for comics and really break it down and analyse every aspect of it preferably with a guiding question. This would be really helpful and confidence giving . So if this is possible soon I would be really grateful. Also you guys are great. Thanks! Cheers :)) Hope you guys will be able to create such a video.

We have done this already and it’s on the channel. In fact, our video on Grant Snider’s comic is my favorite video! Go to our website (www.ibenglishguys.com) and then to the “Assessment Central Page”. Our Paper 1 resources will offer the “Countdown to Paper 1” and give you many text types to review. All have accompanying documents and sample responses. Hope this helps you as you study and prepare. Spread the word!

Thanks for such a great video. What type of structure should I use for this prompt?

[@ibenglishguys]

That depends on the GQ and also on your own decisions. The next video has a sample paper so watch that and you’ll see.
