There is no way I can dismiss the power of print ads and for the purposes of these lessons I think
print ads are a great place to start, but it should not end there. Radio and television advertisements also
have incredible power, but I feel as though, like print ads, they are too much about the actual
advertisement.

The four current strands for CCSS are Reading Literature/Informational Texts, Writing,
Speaking/Listening, and Language.
Writing also has a few subcategories that accompany it:
11a. Introduce precise, knowledgeable claim(s), establish the significance of the claim(s),
distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and ceate an organization that logically
sequences claim(s), counterclaims, reasons, and evidence
11b. Develop claim(s) and counterclaims fairly and thoroughly, supplying the most relevant evidence
for each while pointing out the strengths and limitations of both in a manner that anticipates the
audience's knowledge level, concerns, values, and possible biases.
11c. Use words, phrases, and clauses as well as varied syntax to link the major sections of the text,
create cohesion, and clarify the relationships between claim(s) and reasons, between reasons and evidence,
and between claim(s) and counterclaims.
11d. Establish and maintain a formal style and objective tone while attending to the norms and
conventions of the discipline in which they are writing.
11e. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the argument presented.

I would argue that this also put tremendous pressure on writers. Before, it was only necessary to
have storylines; now dialogue needed to be included. I don't think cinema was ready for this shift and now
dialogue needed to actually mean something. This could put an actor in a very tough spot if the writing were
poorly executed.
