The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass:The Early Life of Frederick Douglass

After rereading chapters 1-3 from the text, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass and the 13th-15th Amendments, students will better understand Civil Rights and the author’s choice of words to use throughout the text to make a point. Students can identify and explain examples within the text where Douglass uses diction and syntax to establish and achieve his purpose.

There are three lessons that can be used to complement a study of The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass and take a new perspective by merging ELA skills with civics knowledge.
