The Rhetoric of Food

Hey! Miss a day of school? Confused about what's going on? Check out a backlog of do nows, activities, notes, and completed student work for the Rhetoric Unit!

Here is the introduction lesson to the Rhetoric of Food unit:

We will be using illustrations from Michael Pollan's Food Rules to help improve inferencing skills. Each day you will be looking at an illustration from the illustrated edition of the book and making a prediction as to what "rule" it might have been inspired by. By doing this we will be learning important information about the food we eat while improving important skills--inferencing and predicting.
