Using the extremely antiquated article I read to you last week ("How to Be a Good Wife" from a 1950s Home Economics textbook), you will write a satirical list of 9-10 things you need to do to be a "good" ... boyfriend/girlfriend ... student ... son/daughter ... or whatever you choose. Be creative. Have some fun with it.
But remember that, at the heart of satire, there is a lesson to be learned or a point being made. Use humor, sarcasm, irony, etc ... but again ... and I STRESS ... have a purpose for your satire and be sure that you accomplish it.
- 9-10 Items in your list
- 2-3 Sentences per item
- Must contain: HUMOR or SARCASM or IRONY
- Must also: make a valid and effective point to your reader
- QUIZ GRADE
Submit through Canvas no later than midnight tomorrow (1/15/2019) or it will be considered late. We will work on it in class tomorrow as well. Late work accepted until midnight on Friday (1/18/2019).
