Persuasion: Find Your Voice

3rd Edition Online Resources

 

Persuasion highlights elements of persuasion, especially as it relates to oral communication. Students must cite passages from literature to defend their points of view. Literature selections such as “I Am Malala,” “Farewell to Manzanar,” and the “Brown Girl Dreaming” frame the basis for exploring the reasoning process through analysis and interpretation. Opportunities are presented for impromptu, informative, and persuasive speeches, debate, small and large group discussion, and critical reasoning. To purchase this curriculum unit, please go to Kendall Hunt's website.
