Ethos, Logos, and Pathos Composition AP English Language Mr. Gallegos Abraham Lincoln High School

Warm-Up Please finish annotating yesterday’s article about paid maternity leave. Have your Crash Course Books out please! Jody Heyman, the author of “Why We Can Afford to Give Parents a Break” effectively establishes her argument using rhetorical appeals.

Learning Objectives Content Objective: Students will be able to identify and evaluate the use of ethos, pathos, and logos in an essay. Language Objective: Students will read the Jody Heyman essay and annotate the text. Language Objective: Students will write an essay where they evaluate the effectiveness of the use of ethos, pathos, and logos in the essay.

Key Vocabulary Ethos is an appeal to character by demonstrating that the speaker is trustworthy and credible. Ethos often stresses shared values between the speaker and the audience. Logos is an appeal to logic or reason by offering clear and rational ideas to back up your thesis, or claim.

Key Vocabulary Pathos is an appeal to emotion. An argument should never be based solely on pathos. Figurative language, personal anecdotes, and vivid images are commonly used. Thesis statements reveal the central idea in a work and the position of the writer in certain contexts.

Annotating the Text Language Objective: Students will read the Jody Heyman essay and annotate the text. I would highlight lines that you want to refer to in your paper. I would write in the margins which appeal you think the author is using. Look for the author’s counterargument.

Reminders For Your Essay 1. Make sure you have a solid thesis. Either the author was or was not effective in her use of ethos, pathos, and logos. Make sure your thesis makes it clear how effective the author was. 2. Remember that effective writers justify their positions by using examples to back up their point. 3. Make sure you effectively structure your paper and that you have well-constructed paragraphs with topic sentences that let the reader know what that specific paragraph is going to be about. This means you need an introduction, body, and conclusion.
