• Definition, purpose and examples of fourteen types of rhetorical devices (see list below). Multiple examples from historical speeches, literature and everyday life for each
• Assessment activity that asks students to identify rhetorical devices used in excerpts from speeches and literature—works well as a white board activity or quiz!
• Close reading practice activity in which students read Lou Gehrig’s “Farewell to Baseball Address,” identifying and explaining the rhetorical devices used
• Group practice activity in which students choose from a list of famous historical speeches and analyze the rhetoric used
• Writing activity in which students apply what they’ve learned in their own writing
• Activity and handout packet with a glossary of rhetorical devices and printables for each activity
• Answer key and rubric to make grading a breeze
The presentation is provided as both a fully editable PowerPoint (so you can add or delete rhetorical devices based on the needs of your classroom) and PDF (to prevent any technical difficulties or font loss).
