D. Lesson Proper

Discussion:

What is persuasive writing? (The learners will listen with the discussion)

This type of essay convinces a reader to

believe or adopt a viewpoint on a certain
issue. It is sometimes written in three to
five paragraphs.
Persuasive writing is a type of writing
that aims at convincing people to think,
feel, or to act in the writer’s way.
Persuasive texts may be in the form of
essays in books, articles in newspapers
and magazines, posters and, of course,
advertisements. All these forms of
persuasion try to get the readers to agree
or to take an action.

A persuasive writing usually contains:

• writer’s opinion, which he/she wants
the readers to accept
• evidences or information to support
the writer’s opinion
• the action that the writer wants the
readers to do

Here are some of the effective and

commonly used persuasive techniques
used by writers to achieve their purpose.

Rhetorical Question. This is a question

that is not intended to be answered.
Instead, it is meant to state the obvious, or
to challenge the readers and to make
them think. For example: Wouldn’t you do
everything to make your family happy?

Repetition. Repeating key words or

phrases will likely make readers remember
them.

Bandwagon. This is the technique that

would convince a reader to believe in an
idea because the majority or everybody
else believes it’s true. For example: Nine
out of 10 students got higher grades
because of the modular learning setup.

Appeal to Emotion. The use of emotive

language can help sway the readers to
side with the writer or to do what he says.
For example: Be thankful that you have
more than what you need. Others children
do not even have a roof above their head,
but they study harder than anyone.

Appeal to Authority. The writer needs to

establish himself as an authority in the
topic he is writing about by using facts,
figures, and other proofs that would
support his opinions or claims.

The tone of a persuasive can be

passionate, personal, and emotional when
addressing a certain target audience.
However, when writing to persuade a
group of professionals, emotive language
may not work as effective as it would to a
group of teenagers.

The structure of most persuasive essays

follows a rather simple format.

● One paragraph introduction that

presents the topic and the writer’s
stand or opinion about it.
● At least one body paragraph that
presents further explanation, as well as
evidence or proof that would support
the writer’s opinion.
● One concluding paragraph that
summarizes or repeats the opinion, or
calls the reader to action based on that
opinion.
