Description
Are Superfoods real or a total myth? This persuasive pamphlet will have your students HOOKED. They'll analyze rhetorical appeals (ethos, logos, pathos) in the nonfiction article. This makes an excellent high school reading comprehension activity.
Your high school reading comprehension resource includes:
✅ "Can Goji Berries Save the World?" persuasive article (pamphlet)
✅ Analyzing Rhetorical Appeals (ethos, logos, pathos) Worksheet

After reading the nonfiction passage, students analyze rhetorical appeals. Then, alone or in groups, they write their own persuasive pamphlet about food beliefs or another topic.
