Perfect for use when teaching writing to persuade or argue, this lesson utilises a wide range of teaching strategies to enable students to gain authority over their target audiences. The students who I have taught this lesson before have found it enjoyable and engaging - particularly enjoying the use of videos to see some of the techniques in action!
Throughout the lesson, the learning journey that the students follow enables them to:
- Define the key terms 'Argue', 'Persuade' and 'Authority.'
- Consider famous individuals that are effective at gaining authority;
- Link key techniques to their definition and examples;
- Identify key techniques in videos (Dave Gorman, Dragon's Den, etc.) and analyse why they are effective;
- Write their own authority-filled persuasive piece using a success criteria;
- Peer assess their partner's writing attempts.
The resource is made up of:
- A visual and engaging Powerpoint presentation, which walks teachers and students through the lesson in a step-by-step fashion
- Hyperlinks to all of the online video resources that you will need
- A key techniques activity worksheet
- An analysis worksheet
- A full lesson plan/ teacher guidance.
All images are cited on the final slide and are licensed for commercial use.
