Independent Reading: Turn logs in today for this week and last week • Wednesday’s Learning Target: I can tell the difference between a direct question and a rhetorical question. • Wednesday’s Log: Either copy a rhetorical question from your novel or create a rhetorical question your character might ask another character. Add a sentence that gives context to your question. • Thursday’s Learning Target: I can identify and create parallel structure. • Thursday’s Log: Copy an example of parallel structure from what you read today. If there is no example, create a sentence about what you read that uses parallel structure.
Rhetorical Questions Are . . . questions posed without expectation of an answer but merely as a way of making a point. Examples: "Are you crazy?" "Who cares?" "How should I know?" "Are you kidding me?"
