Assessment: Using Rhetoric to Advance Point of View


Description

In this lesson, students complete the End-of-Unit Assessment. Students apply the writing skills they have learned throughout this unit and draw upon their analysis of the unit texts to craft a formal, multi-paragraph response to the following prompt: Consider Du Bois’s “Of Our Spiritual Strivings” and Washington’s “Atlanta Compromise Speech.” Analyze how each author uses rhetoric to advance his point of view, and consider how each author’s use of rhetoric contributes to the power or persuasiveness of the text.
