Your writing should clearly demonstrate that you understand how the quote connects to the ideas in the speech and how the family is affected by this. Explain it.
- Reviewed political cartoons and completed an assignment about them. If you were absent, make sure that your observations are detailed. Make a bullet-pointed list.
