"Who you are inside is what helps you make and do everything in life" - Mr. Rodgers

We will continue with the unit we started befor the school shutdown.  We were discussing and learing about rhetorical devices that authors utilize in their writing to strengthen meaning, add interest, persuade and entertain their audience.  We are going to learn about two important historical figures, Elizabeth Cady Stanto and Booker T. Washington, and their powerful and persuasive writing. You will learn about their biographies and the historical context of their writing, their important speeches, and vocabulary of their speeches. 

For this week, you will focus on Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her speech "Address to the First Women's Rights Convention" that took place in Seneca Falls in 1848. Email Mrs. Bodkin or me with any questions.  Check out Mrs. Bodkin's site for some additional resources.Good luck!
