An infectious rhythm that is accompanied by a spirited performance, full of joy that can transform even the quietest of people and draw them out of their shells. It’s the type of dance you want to be a part of even if you do not know what you are doing. Each step can be like an invitation to write your own story and feel the pulse of life run through you.

Description of Assignment
Abstract for The Geographical Area Unofficial but Should Be Official Argument Geographical areas have things they specialize in or are known for. Students were asked to select something from their hometown (either birth home, current home, or aspirational home) and build an argument establishing that what they selected is the unofficial icon of that hometown. Students used the Toulmin Style for their arguments and based them on their own insights as residents of that geographical area. The purpose of the assignment was to ask students to pay attention to the space that shaped them and understand what makes it special.
