RHETORICAL TRIANGLE
DIRECTIONS:
Cut out the foldables, fold the rhetorical triangle along the straight lines so that
the words are visible in front, and glue along the dotted lines. Glue the
questions below the foldable.
Write the definition of each rhetorical device on the top of the flap. Choose a
topic and write it in the triangle under the flaps. Write an example about the
topic to demonstrate each rhetorical device under the corresponding flap.
Answer the "Big Idea" questions.
