WRITING TO ARGUE When we write to Argue, we use the mnemonic ‘DAFOREST ‘ to remind us of what criteria we have to use to achieve a good grade.

D is for Direct Address

A IS FOR AUDIENCE/TONE Your audience is the person to whom you are writing It may be your Head-teacher It may be your parent It may be a friend It may be a local Councillor It may be the residents of an old age home! Think about who you have been asked to write to, then decide whether your TONE will be FORMAL or INFORMAL

F is for Facts Facts are items of information about your topic that are true. Eg. Spitting spreads diseases such as TB

O IS FOR OPINION It is my opinion that this tree looks like a dancer. Do you think so or not? No, I don’t think so. It looks just like a tree to me!

R IS FOR RHETORICAL ? R IS ALSO FOR REPETITION Rhetorical Questions make the reader think about your idea. They become involved with your argument, and you are beginning to win them over. R IS ALSO FOR REPETITION

E IS FOR Emotive Language Expresses deep emotion & causes the reader to feel a certain feeling towards the subject Ex: The longer you wait, the longer her blood seeps out of her veins into the ground (a child running to get a band aid)

S is for STATISTICS (NUMERICAL FACTS) Statistics show that 35% of ornamental Trees die because of Central heating. This supports my argument that trees should not be brought indoors.

T is for Three (Rule of) More people seem to remember the listing of 3 the best. I ask you, is this fair, is it right, is it just? “Veni, vidi, vici” (I came, I saw, I conquered) – Julius Caesar:

When Writing to Argue, use: A = AUDIENCE F = FACTS O = OPINION R = RHETORICAL QUESTIONS E = EXPERT S = STATISTICS T = TONE

Rhetorical Devices Rhetorical Device Example Facts The seriously slippery sidewalk is a health hazard Repetition 75% of customers are happy Rule of Three It was a heart-breaking moment Alliteration The man has seven cautions on his police record. Emotive Language Our park is amazing, wonderful, mind-blowing Opinions It’s fantastic. Even the toilets are fantastic! Statistics One customer commented; “It’s great value for money”
