-Literary Device Master Options-
Choose one to demonstrate mastery of the literary devices (yay we love choices!):

1. Traditional Quiz (matching and identification)
2. Beautiful, artistic, professional, creative poster (Requirements: Larger than a standard sheet of paper, colorful, imagery, definitions, and examples - all incredibly detailed and accurate). This poster must be as much work as "acing" a quiz to earn a high grade. You may use a computer, but all requirements are the same AND you must attach a works cited if you use any images not your own. Have fun!
