Introduction.
The article needs a dramatic or catching first
line. It should be short and snappy.
In the first paragraph, you should also
address
□ Who?
□ What?
□ When?
□ Where?
Body of article.
□ Give more detail. The most important facts
should be given first as the reader tends to
read the beginning of an article and the
final sentence.(as informed by the Evening
Gazette).
Conclusion.
□ The conclusion should summarise the
important points of the argument and
repeating your dramatic statements of the
first paragraph in a different way will be
persuasive.
Conclusion.
□ If, when you are writing you can agree with
the reader on the conclusion, persuasion
is easier and it is more persuasive to use
the word “we”.
□ E.g. We would all like our opinions to be
heard.
