6. Writing / Opinion
Decide if this article is credible by weighing the emotional and logical appeals (as we just did). Did this author convince you that the jury is the best way to determine justice? Why or why not?
Then, write a letter to the editor of the newspaper in which this article was published telling him / her what you think of the article and why. Write three paragraphs and be sure to reference quotes from the article. Also, use three vocabulary words in your letter.
USE ANT in opening paragraph! (attention getter, necessary information, thesis)
EXAMPLE;

Introduction - What a great article about our justice system! After reading, Defense of the Jury, I changed my mind about some things.......
2nd paragraph - focus on logical appeals and what you learned
3rd paragraph - focus on emotional appeals and tell if the author has persuaded you to his opinion (that juries are best and why.
Closure
