POWER Prep

I strongly recommend you buy the powerpoint if you buy the worksheet! Teach students the following persuasive techniques: Bandwagon Emotional Testimonial Faulty Reasoning repetition (tested on STAAR) My students learned each technique with a video, they absolutely LOVED this lesson and could apply each technique after their guided notes to a court case we read before on the Michael Dunn trial. This lesson would be great on a day #2 of a persuasive unit, after introducing persuasive writing.

A quick horror story lesson for one day (can be made shorter or longer) This lesson includes two short stories, pre-reading activity, and multiple choice questions for state testing practice (STAAR-Texas). Standard this covers: F19D making inferences with text evidence

Two articles on sleep paralysis with multiple choice questions for each. Texas 6-8 STAAR aligned questions for F19E (summarizing) independent practiceexpositoryguided practice

Review packet for Thanksgiving. Covers multiple reading standards. Sorry I only have the PDF, which is why this activity is only $1. Hope it helps!
