Please help me to write a Persuasive Essay;

• Understand Persuasive Writing, including:
  • Strategies for Argumentation and Persuasion
  • Taking a position
  • Persuading Readers to ACT
  • Proposing a Solution

• Write an persuasive essay on one of these subjects:
  • People should or should not be worried about global warming
  • Tattoos should or should not be banned in the workplace
  • Students should or should not be required to wear uniforms in public schools
  • Marijuana should or should not be legalized
• Your essay must consist of five paragraphs on one of those subjects:
  • 1st paragraph: introduction with clear three-point thesis statement placed as the last sentence, for example: Students should be required to wear uniforms so as to decrease distractions, save their parents money, and avoid discrimination due to clothing.
  • 2nd supporting paragraph starting with clear topic sentence: Distractions are cut down when children attend school wearing uniform clothes.
  • 3rd supporting paragraph starting with clear topic sentence: School uniforms can be fiscally better for families struggling to pay for their children’s clothes
  • 4th supporting paragraph starting with clear topic sentence: School uniforms can decrease the peer pressure, bullying and possible discrimination that students can face because of their wardrobe.
  • 5th concluding paragraph: closing the essay

• Your essay must cover the subject.
• This will probably take 1-2 pages, but you are free to decide.
• If the subject is not covered, the instructor will make you try again and an A will be out of the question.
• Similarly, if you go overboard the same thing will happen
