Description: ELA MONSTERS -- PERSUASION Deck #1 (Rhetorical Question - Repetition - Emotive Language) Are you ready to teach your students about rhetorical devices the fun way? In this interactive boom deck, students learn 3 rhetorical (speech) devices and then battle monsters by choosing the right language to defeat each one. In 20 funny and engaging task cards, students will practice identifying: - Rhetorical Question (the main focus of this deck) - Repetition - Emotive Language The deck also includes an explanation and example of each technique which students can refer back to if they get stuck. Students will love how fun and intuitive this game is - simply drag phrases on to a monster to battle it. You'll also find that students are more motivated to identify language through a game, and their recall is improved through associating each language technique with a specific character. For instance, this deck is themed around the (somewhat smug looking?!) TRICKSY FOX who can only be defeated with a true rhetorical question. Have fun!
