How this will work…. Any sentence written in blue indicates an activity for you to do. For example:
Write down a list of things that interest you.
2) Any task written in purple is designed to be more of an extension task. These are tasks that are more challenging and ones you may want to revisit after the lesson.
3) Key terms will be written in red. There will be a glossary of these terms at the end of each lesson as well as explanations as we go along. 5<br>

Effective Planning<br>
08
How to Plan Planning needs to not only cover content but also the order.
You need to think about the way you sequence the events of your text.
Planning needs to take into account how your ideas connect. 8<br>

Task 1 – The Speech Choosing the Topic Look at the list of things you wrote down at the start of the lesson.
Can you come up with at least five separate things about some of them?
For example:
Exercise – weight lifting, competitive sport, stretching, well-being, personal bests. 9<br>

For example:
Exercise – weight lifting, competitive sport, stretching, well-being, personal bests. 9<br>
10
Structuring your Speech You may find it helpful to have a ‘Why’ stem topic:
Why you should exercise every day.
Why parkour should be an Olympic sport.
Why seagulls are better than pandas. 10<br>
Why you should exercise every day.
Why parkour should be an Olympic sport.
Why seagulls are better than pandas. 10<br>
11
Structuring your Speech Alternatively, you could set up a debate question:
Do we need to exercise every day?
Should parkour be included in the next Olympics?
Are seagulls actually better than pandas? 11 Look at the topics you selected earlier and see if you can turn them into a debate question or a ‘Why’ statement.<br>

12
Choosing the Order How would you sequence these ideas so that they flow well together?
Exercise – weight lifting, competitive sport, stretching, well-being, personal bests. 12<br>
Exercise – weight lifting, competitive sport, stretching, well-being, personal bests. 12<br>
13
Choosing the Order Exercise –
Essential for well-being and health in general
For example – weights and the benefits of weight lifting
Make sure you do it right – form and stretching
Benefits and successes of PBs and the boost it gives you
Could even take it to competition 13<br>

14
Task 2 – The Article What sort of events could realistically happen in your area? 14<br>
15
Authorial Intent – What are you aiming to achieve? 15 Do you want to persuade people to attend the event?
Do you want to inform them about the event afterwards?
Is it going to be a positive or negative report?<br>
Do you want to inform them about the event afterwards?
Is it going to be a positive or negative report?<br>
16
Task 2 – The Article Choose an event from your list and try to think of five key elements associated with the event.
For example: Music Festival - Persuade people to go – bands on stage, an open mic event, food available, how to buy tickets, charity it is supporting 16<br>
For example: Music Festival - Persuade people to go – bands on stage, an open mic event, food available, how to buy tickets, charity it is supporting 16<br>
17
Task 2 – The Article Choosing the Order Music Festival –
Bands on stage – build up excitement with the headline acts
Open mic sessions – introducing new acts including local groups – more about people
Local food offered in trucks – support economy
Charity it is supporting and request for donations.
Where tickets are available – make it really easy 17<br>

Writing an effective persuasive or argumentative text requires you to position your audience so that they share your values.
You need to establish the idea that you are correct in your beliefs and they should therefore share them.
You need to be convincing! 20 Audience Positioning Techniques used by a writer to present and share the ideology of a text.<br>

Hello and welcome.
How many of you feel that you exercise enough? If you are anything like me, you probably feel like you could do more but you are also struggling to motivate yourself to do it.
We all know exercise is important for physical health but it is also really important for your emotional and mental well-being. 21 Making Your Purpose Clear How does this speech introduce the topic effectively?<br>

Good Morning.
It is a simple fact that seagulls are better than pandas. Now I appreciate that some of you may argue against me. You may, in fact, mock my beliefs that the terrifying birds that stalk seafronts and playgrounds up and down the country are in some way superior to the fluffy black and white cuties that represent the World Wildlife Fund but I am here to convince you that they are. And to take it a step further, I will convince you that they are not in ‘some way’ superior – they are in every way superior. 25 Making Your Purpose Clear How does this speech introduce the topic effectively?<br>

The Hackem Sailing Gala is an annual event. Every year, over a thousand boats take part in a number of different events. This year is the first time that speedboats have been permitted to join but some people think they shouldn’t be involved.
The funfair was on Downland Common for over two weeks. When the funfair left, there was a lot of rubbish and mess. This has made the residents of the area very angry. 31 Task 2 – The Article<br>

32
Structure Strategies<br>
33
Task 1 – The Speech As well as thinking about how you structure the main ideas, you also want to think about the structural devices you can use to make your writing more effective. 33<br>
34
Rhetorical Devices – devices or techniques designed to persuade and compel an audience. Anaphora – repeated words or phrases, typically at the start of sentences.
Parallelism – the use of words, phrases or sentences that have a similar structure.
Antithesis – the use of contrary or opposite concepts close together.
Rhetorical Questions – a question that is asked without an answer being expected.
Hypophora – the speaker raises a question and then immediately answers it.
Discourse Markers - words or phrases that help signpost sections of text or conversation.
Triadic structure/ tricolon – a sentence containing a series of three words, phrases or clauses. 34<br>

Discourse Markers - words or phrases that help signpost sections of text or conversation.
Triadic structure/ tricolon – a sentence containing a series of three words, phrases or clauses. 34<br>
35
Devices in Action Anaphora
You cannot ignore the fact that seagulls have managed to make our world their own. You cannot ignore the fact that seagulls will sample any food to keep themselves going.
And you cannot ignore that this is completely the opposite for pandas.
How does this help to position the audience to share the values of the text? 35<br>

And you cannot ignore that this is completely the opposite for pandas.
How does this help to position the audience to share the values of the text? 35<br>
36
Devices in Action Hypophora Are you sure you don’t have a spare thirty minutes a day? Think about the time you spend on social media, the time you spend watching silly YouTube videos of cats, or even the time you spend watching something awful on television – could you find the time from there? Let’s be honest, you probably could. 36 How does the use of hypophora position the audience to agree with the speaker?
Why do you think the speech has been ordered in this way?<br>
Why do you think the speech has been ordered in this way?<br>
37
Devices in Action Parallelism often creates a sense of symmetry within writing, which is appealing to the listener.
I am not expecting you to love seagulls, not expecting you to love their raucous squawks or love their tendency to rip your bins apart. But I am expecting you to respect their determination to survive.
How does the rhythm here engage the reader?
How does the parallelism make the final sentence more effective? 37<br>

How does the rhythm here engage the reader?
How does the parallelism make the final sentence more effective? 37<br>
38
Devices in Action Antithesis
A small sacrifice in terms of time and effort will bring about huge rewards in terms of health and well-being.
Pandas eat almost nothing but bamboo, a plant with so little nutritional value that it is practically pointless. Seagulls eat almost everything. Their refusal to be picky eaters helps ensure their survival. 38 How does antithesis help engage the audience?<br>

39
Task 2 – The Article Cohesion – the use of language and grammar devices that hold a text together.
Coherence – the quality of being logical and consistent so that it makes sense.
Articles often rely on a number of different techniques to create cohesion and coherence within the text. You will need to think about the features you use that connect the paragraphs together. 39<br>

Over ten thousand residents and visitors are expected to descend on the area to watch a range of both established and new acts as they try and raise funds for a new community centre.
The critically-acclaimed Dystopian Backlash and Indie legends Fertile Imagination are among the headliners that are expected to draw big crowds at this Saturday’s event but local favourites, Back Into The Air, are also hoping to wow the gathering throng with their popular tracks, ‘Mercy in Knowing’ and ‘Day One.’
There will also be a number of smaller stages where open mic events will help showcase new talent and festival-goers can sign up ahead of time on the festival’s website: www.GMF2020.com.
As well as local talent and singers, the festival will also feature a plethora of food trucks providing delicious, locally-sourced fare that will delight every palette. This year’s theme is all about sustainability and the food trucks have all committed to only using 100% compostable or recyclable packaging.
Just like the festival, the new community centre is also aiming to be a fully sustainable and eco-friendly building, using the latest developments in non-toxic materials and recycled insulation.
Donations for the centre and tickets can be purchased on the festival’s website or over the counter at the tourist information centre on the high street. 40<br>

The Speech Topic Loop – returning to a previous topic within the same text. How many of you feel that you exercise enough? If you are anything like me, you probably feel like you could do more but you are also struggling to motivate yourself to do it. We all know exercise is important for physical health but it is also really important for your emotional and mental well-being.

The Speech Summarise your main views.
Use discourse markers such as ‘Finally’ or ‘In conclusion’ to highlight the fact this is your closing statement.
Make sure it stays as your final point.
Finally, while I fully appreciate that pandas are pathetically in danger and in desperate need of our help, I believe that seagulls are, without a doubt, worthy of our respect. I hope you do too.
Thank you for listening.

53
Timing and Word Count If you wrote a 3 minute speech, you would need somewhere around 500 words – depending on how quickly you speak.
In your non-fiction writing exam, this is roughly the length for most people’s responses so you will need about the same number of points. 53<br>

54
Test Your Pace – Time how long it takes you to read these 50 words aloud. Record yourself so you can listen back and check your tone. Delivering a speech is not just about the content – it’s about the confidence of the speaker, the power they put behind the words not just the words themselves. You need a strong voice to deliver a strong message and to keep your audience interested at all times. No easy task. 54<br>
