| Women’s Suffrage: Analyzing Rhetorical Appeals | In this lesson, students will read Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s “Declaration of Sentiments,” presented at the Seneca Falls Convention (Seneca Falls, N.Y., July 19th and 20th, 1848). Students will categorize selected text by type of rhetorical appeal: ethos, pathos, logos, or kairos.
Students will also complete text-dependent questions to further analyze the document. As part of this analysis, they will evaluate Stanton’s use of various appeals and compare and contrast the ideas and language in this document and in the Declaration of Independence.

| Narrative of the Captivity Close Reading | Students will read and analyze the "Narrative of the Captivity" for Rowlandson's use of allusion as it contributes to the meaning of her account. In addition, they will identify and analyze the central idea and supporting details as they contribute to meaning. |
| Dealing with Grief: A Comparison of Tone and Theme | In this four-part lesson series, students will delve into the topic of grief through analysis of poetic devices, form, and point of view in poems by Emily Dickinson and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Students will connect theme to the poets’ viewpoints on the emotions, or the lack thereof, that one experiences during times of pain and loss. Students will read the poems multiple times to seek layers of meaning and write an in-depth analysis. |
