Persuasive Essays

Today - you need to use the class to work on your 2nd drafts of your persuasive essays.  If you need help I will come around and talk with you.

Note - make sure you have a defendable thesis statement and look for the following -

1) Personal Connection
2) Expert Testimony
3) Facts, statistics, logical arguments
4) Rebuttal of opposing points
5) Audience - "So What" - why should they care
6) Radical new twist on old topics, or a "New" topic currently in the news
