Lesson 10: Persuasion with Rhetorical Devices
In this lesson students will learn about rhetorical devices, identify their use and use them to enhance their own soapbox speech.
Write routinely over extended time frames (time for research, reflection, and revision) and shorter time frames (a single sitting or a day or two) for a range of discipline-specific tasks, purposes, and audiences.
Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, relevant descriptive details, and well-structured event sequences.
With some guidance and support from peers and adults, develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach, focusing on how well purpose and audience have been addressed. (Editing for conventions should demonstrate command of Language standards 1-3 up to and including grade 8 here.)
D3.4.6-8. Develop claims and counterclaims while pointing out the strengths and limitations of both.
