Both resources are available as a bundle, also.

Station 2: Re-arrange a jumbled argument. Station 3: Create a persuasive slogan and justify why it is persuasive. Station 4: Word search. Station 5: Identify the most emotionally persuasive sentence. Station 6: Rhetoric riddles. Station 7: Match the persuasive techniques. Station 8: Write a persuasive letter to the Chamber Master.

A ‘fake’ courtroom scenario, with a range of ‘evidence’ that encourages pupils to write the closing speech for either the Prosecution or Defence team. After finding that my top set Year 8 students were getting bored with the repetitive nature of rhetoric, I created a three-part lesson sequence that encourages them to think about their opening and closing statements within a perusaisve speech. Their ultimate task: Write a closing speech for either the prosecution or defence team. Lesson 1: Exploring ‘controversial’ statements and formulating their opinion. Lesson 2: The ‘crime’ is explained and they are provided with evidence to start planning their closing argument. Lesson 3: They write their closing argument, making use of the evidence available. Worked really well with my top set students, but it is accessible for all.

A lesson on building effective topic sentences following a formula of success. This lesson is particularly asking students to work with Macbeth, however the formula is applicable for all texts.
