A Persuasive writing checklist
•It is personal – use ‘I’ and ‘you’ and ‘we’
•There are imperatives – ‘must’, ‘should’
•Use emotive words
•Tell an anecdote to prove a point
•Use powerful words
•Include two or three short sentences at crucial moments
•Use a rhetorical question
•Use some exaggeration – not too much
•Include facts and statistics
•Enliven your writing with metaphor, simile, alliteration
•Repetition of a word or phrase will help convince the reader
•Vary your punctuation – one of two question marks andexclamation marks would be effective
How to write an effective
endingThe conclusion is the
ending to your writing –
it is the impressionthat
you will leave the reader with. For a non fiction essay
you needto summarise (not just repeat) your
main points and provide a finalperspective
on the topic. Try and use anecdotes, or humour orstatistics to conclude.If you take anything
from this speech, I want you to rememberthat school uniform is unnecessary, it is ugly and
mostparents can ill afford it. Why does this school persist inmaking us students suffer in this
way? 97% of students and87% of parents think that students in Year 10 and 11 shouldbe
given the choice to decide what they wear. Do the rightthing. You know it makes sense.
Finally!!Top tips for exam success:
1.Read widely and for pleasure.
2.Read non-fiction and fiction.
3.Listen carefully in class. Your teacher is an expert and wants you to gainthe highest grade
possible.
4.Try completing as many practice papers as possible at home. This givesyou a feel for the
timings and the sort of questions you will be asked.
5.Try and extend your vocabulary. Reading will help with this.
6.Make a list of your weaknesses – is it spelling, apostrophes, planningetc. and work on
them.
7.Get a good night’s sleep before the exam.
8.Ensure you have at least two black / blue pens. You can do it!!
Try using these devices even in
non fictionWhat is a simile?A simile is a
comparison of two
things using like or
asThe frost sparkled like diamonds on the
pavementWhat is a metaphor?A metaphor is a comparison of two things where one thing is
anotherThe boxer’s iron fist crashed into the opponentWhat is emotive language?Emotive
language is any language that makes people feel emotional i.e. anger, sympathyetc..There
are many valid reasons why cosmetics should not be tested on animals. Thishurtful industry
causes unimaginable agony to these innocent animals. Would you condoneexperiments
conducted on your own child?Don’t forget that you can use statistics, even if you have made
them up yourself!
Possible questions:
4.Describe a recent journey you have made and explainhow it made you feel.
5.Write a letter advising a friend on how to cope withfeelings of anxiety.
6.Write an article for a magazine advising youngpeople how to make the most of their
summer holidays.
7.Write an article for a teenage magazine describingyour bedroom.
8.Describe an event that has had a huge impact onyour and your life.
