VITAL INFORMATION
Grade/Level: 9
STANDARDS: You must include both teacher standards (Domain/TPE 뭩) and student content standards. You may also
include standards for ELD, Special Education and AEMP.
Standards:
• Area : Reading
Into Activity: I will make the connection from the last lesson on Susan B.
Anthony's pre-civil rights speech on "Women's right to vote" as
opposed to Bill Cosby's post-civil rights speech on "Brown versus
Board of Education." I will tell them that the former speaker was
advocating civil equality for women, whereas, latter was trying to
motivate the beneficiaries of the civil rights movement (African-
Americans) to live up to a higher expectation of themselves,
instead of habitually blaming their failures to others (i.e., White
folks).
Student Accommodations For IEP students, I will ask them to choose 5 rhetorical devices
and Modifications:
they like and write the definitions of them on a piece of paper
without having to look for examples from the script.
I will place the IEP students with a group that is most inviting and
cooperative.
Progress Monitoring: I will walk around to ascertain that they are finding the appropriate
examples for their chosen terms. When they are incorrect, I will
point them out and give them second chances to correct them
before they turn them in to me for a satisfactory credit.
Homework: Students will have to write a 1-page summary (neatly written or
typed) on the topic of their/group's choice.
a) Fashion Industry & Eating Disorders;
b) Fast foods & Obesity;
c) Video Games & Violence;
d) Violent vs. Nonviolent Activists on Issues of Immigration;
e) Student’s choice approved by the teacher.

RHETORICAL DEVICES FOR SPEECH #2, #3
1. Allusion: The act of alluding; indirect reference
“Without naming names, the candidate criticized the national leaders by allusion.”
“Sleep and death are analogous in that they both share a lack of animation.”
“Second hand smoke is to long term health what indolence is to financial success.”
“Barbara P. Bush uses anecdotes (funny stories she heard from other people) in her
speech.
4. Simile: directly comparing two essentially unlike things, often introduced by “as,”
“like,” “compare,” “liken,” or “resemble.”
“A sea of troubles”
“Old age is the evening of life”
“All the world’s a stage” (Shakespeare)
For example, a story of “Romeo and Juliet” can be used as an allegory that teaches
people to “forgive their enemies.”
7. Metonymy: The substitution of the name/object with the word that is closely
associated with it.
“threads” = clothes
“wheels” = car
“White House” to refer to the U.S.
“Moscow” to refer to the Russian government, etc.
11. Parallelism: something that is similarly phrased and shows similarity in meaning.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but
we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings
of liberty, but to secure them
