    3. Lesson 4. 2 : The Rhetorical Triangle

    Lesson 4. 2 : The Rhetorical Triangle

    • Lesson 4. 2 : The Rhetorical Triangle

      Lesson 4. 2 : The Rhetorical Triangle

      Specific Expectations:

      • identify the topic, the audience, the purpose for writing, and the requirements of the particular writing form;
      • use pre-writing strategies to generate ideas for writing 
      • write complete and correct sentences
      • construct a series of paragraphs, clearly stating an opinion in the opening paragraph and supporting it in subsequent paragraphs with clear, sufficient, and convincing reasons 


      Learning Goals: In this lesson, you will be introduced to the Rhetorical Triangle- an idea founded by Aristotle, which identifies three main areas or types of persuasive techniques that when used together, form the perfect persuasive argument. 

      You will begin to use these techniques in your writing while focusing on identifying and choosing facts and statistics that support your point of view
