Starting to think satirically

Good morning,

Today you will first tell me (in writing, on that piece of paper I just gave you) what you think you want to write your own satirical essay about.

I will share my topic with you and together we will generate some reasons to support my point.  The hard part is finding reasons that seem to support your point, but are actually funny or ironic. I'll give you some time to work on your own reasons and even start a draft of your essay.

HOMEWORK: Bring in at least a paragraph of your essay, on paper or in your EJ is fine.
