Ethos, Pathos, & Logos Persuasive Language

OBJECTIVES -Understand and define ethos, pathos, & logos -Recognize characteristics of E,P,L in a given text -Employ E,P,L in your own writing

Letter Home You will write a letter to your parents asking for something. The “something” should be a serious request. Maybe a curfew extension, raise in allowance, a car… In your letter you will use ethos, logos, and pathos to persuade your parents to honor your request. Your letter will be mailed home, and your parents will provide me with feedback on the effectiveness of your argument.

ETHOS—Build your credibility. Why should your parents listen to you? PATHOS—Appeal to emotion. You’re their baby; they love you—take advantage of it. LOGOS—Why does it make sense for you parents to grant your request? What evidence do you have?
