2/22

Warm-up:  Read assigned Onion article, and explain how the satire works.  Where does it rely on exaggeration and mockery?  What social flaw is it ridiculing?  What solutions to the problem do you think that the author would support?  Why?

Classwork:  parallelism quiz, AP style multiple choice on Modest Proposal, time to work on independent satires

Homework:  by 2/25 get independent book and write your original satire of at least 300 words about a current issue.
