Keys to writing the perfect persuasive essay
every persuasive essay must include an intro with :
attention-catcher
1) Use a rhetorical question
2 )Quotation: Connect it to your topic .
3) Anecdote
An anecdote is a short story. Begin your essay with an anecdote that is clearly related to your topic .
thesis statement
A thesis is a clearly worded statement telling readers exactly what the writer intends to do in the essay.
The best place to do this is immediately after the attention catcher.
preview
Preview of Main Points
Every sentence in my paper should in some way connect to that central argument.
Body paragraphs
Each body paragraph should focus on one argument, called the main point.
The main point should then be developed and supported with emotional or logical arguments.
Topic scentences
Topic sentences clearly state the purpose of the paragraph.
supporting details
Supporting details are arguments, examples, or descriptions that justify, explain, and develop main points.
Making the connection
Making the connection is when the last sentence in a body paragraph connects the support back to the main point.
Conclusion
One way to write a strong concluding paragraph is to restate the thesis and main points of the essay, but then attempt to leave a strong impression on the reader by ending on a clinching statement.
