Description: ELA MONSTERS -- PERSUASION Deck #5 (High Modality - Inclusive pronouns - Emotive Language) Are you ready to teach your students about rhetorical devices the fun way? Buy this once and use it forever with your ELA classes! In this interactive boom deck, students learn 3 rhetorical (speech) techniques and then battle monsters by choosing the right language to defeat each one. In 20 funny and engaging task cards, students will practice identifying: - High Modality (the main focus of this deck) - Inclusive pronouns - Emotive Language The deck also includes an explanation and example of each technique that 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 (bossy!) BOSS MAN who keeps trying to order people around. With practice, students will learn to defeat the Boss by choosing the most assertive language. Along the way of course, they are learning how higher modality makes writing more persuasive and powerful. Have fun!
