Under the list of arguments you wrote in the last bite- write in some persuasive points using as many techniques as you can remember from previous persuasion studies.
For example:
if you have chosen the contention 'the gap between rich and poor is widening'
-write in a rhetorical question that also uses emotive language:
e.g. do you really want to be part of a society where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer?
or use inclusive language and a call to action:
e.g. we can all do something by petitioning politicians to change their policies.
Share your examples with the class and the teacher will write some good examples on the board that cover a range of persuasive techniques.
As a class, brainstorm a longer list of techniques using persuasive language techniques sheet previously given to you.
Using the attached planner to help- start writing up your short presuasive speech in class.
Seek feedback from the teacher and peers.
