  1. persuasive texts are made up of a title an introduction body paragraphs and a conclusion in this video we will look at how to
  2. structure and write a persuasive body paragraph let's begin by choosing a topic my persuasive paragraph is going to
  3. argue that more sport is needed in schools you can follow along with this topic or choose your own when we write a body paragraph we must
  4. begin with a topic sentence a topic sentence is an overview or summary of what the paragraph is about now while my whole persuasive text will
  5. be arguing for more sport in school each body paragraph must focus on a specific reason that I believe schools need more sport
  6. here are some reasons I've come up with to support my argument I'm going to choose this reason for my first body paragraph
  7. now that I know the focus of my paragraph I can write my topic sentence remembering that a topic sentence should provide an overview of what the
  8. paragraph will be about which of these sentences would make a good topic sentence pause here while you decide these two won't make good topic
  9. sentences for this paragraph this paragraph is about sport helping to develop teamwork skills effective communication and supporting
  10. one another are only part of teamwork these two sentences are too narrow to be our topic sentence
  11. this topic sentence is too broad it doesn't mention our Focus teamwork this topic sentence will work well it makes clear to the reader what this
  12. paragraph will be about now we have a topic sentence to begin our paragraph
  13. next we need to include details evidence and examples that support the main idea of the paragraph that sport helps students develop teamwork skills
  14. think of the rest of the paragraph As the proof for your opinion now while we're writing a persuasive paragraph it's important to remember the purpose
  15. of the text is to convince people of our point of view for this reason we should be using persuasive devices
  16. here's a list we can use as a reference for our lessons focused on persuasive devices see the two links in the video description
  17. here are some notes of details evidence and examples I've come up with to support my opinion notice I've planned to use some
  18. persuasive techniques I've used adverbs quickly efficiently actively adjectives strong and clear
  19. and a modal verb will help now it's important to organize these ideas in a logical order I think that these two ideas go well
  20. together because listening and giving instructions is part of communicating I'll put this first and this second I've researched and found a study that
  21. provides evidence that sport helps communication skills so that might go well next that means this sentence can go last
  22. now I'll turn my notes into sentences and put everything together here's my paragraph so far
  23. the last sentence of the paragraph is usually a concluding sentence that sums up the idea of the paragraph and links it to the main idea of the text
  24. and more time for Sports in school is needed I think this sentence will work well for that purpose it doesn't introduce any
  25. new ideas but it summarizes and links you might have noticed I've used another couple of persuasive devices in the
  26. paragraph here I've used alliteration perfect platform here I've used emotive language
  27. one last thing to point out is the importance of conjunctions or connectives conjunctions can be used to introduce
  28. reasons to add more information and to show cause and effect in this paragraph I've used the conjunction furthermore to add more
  29. information about the benefits of sport I might be able to use a conjunction to begin my next paragraph for example I could write another key
  30. benefit of sports or secondly sport offers students now it's your turn have a go at writing a body paragraph using one of these
  31. topics or one of your own remember whichever topic you choose make a list of reasons and form your paragraph around one of those
  32. don't forget to use persuasive devices and conjunctions if you'd like share your writing in the comments
  33. thanks for following along hope to see you soon for the next lesson easyteaching.net
