How to Write an Amazing Persuasive Essay
This is a guideline to write an amazing persuasive essay.
This is an example of a persuasive essay. This topic is should cell phones be banned at East High School. To make a persuasive essay good it needs to have certain things, first in the introduction it needs: Boom Sentence( a beginning that makes the readers want to read more), a topic sentence, background information on topic, roadmap( points to support side). It needs a body which has at least 3 paragraphs, 2 paragraphs with reasons supporting your side and 1 paragraph to bad mouth the other side. Last it needs a conclusion that should have: restate topic sentence, restate reasons for support, and call to action (tell the readers to do something about it). Now putting all that into your persuasive essay will make it great!
Life’s not the same without cell phones; cell phones make the earth go round and round in this new technological age. Cell phones should not be banned at East High School. Right now cell phones can’t be used during class, but students can use cell phones between classes and during lunch. Cell phones would be a great resource for emergencies, help people’s vocabulary grow, and help people arrange lunch plans.
One of the many reasons cell phones are needed are because cell phones are a great resource in an emergency. If cell phones were banned, no one could call for help right away. Emergencies big or small, a cell phone could help in all those dangerous situations. Cell phones could be used to contact police right as the emergency occurs. In many situations, cell phones have saved lives in emergencies because of their easy and fast use. Students can use a cell phone on the run unlike staying in one place with a normal phone. That movement could save your life.
In time of an emergency, using good grammar could make talking to police that much easier. Banning cell phones would take away practice writing for students. Texting and writing goes hand in hand. When you text, your grammar skills improve. Everytime someone texts they are practicing writing. Texting would help students raise their English skills and grades. So without cell phones, your vocabulary skills would decrease.
Cell phones help students keep in touch with friends without being with them. Banning cell phones could ruin relationships. Having cell phones help students make lunch plans. Friends are a vital part of your success in high school. Friends can make or break your high school career. So taking away cell phones could ruin some people’s future. Using cell phones help people keep in touch with their friends and without cell phones, kids start losing that special bond with their friends.
Although people think cell phones at school encourage students to cheat, cheating didn’t start when cell phones were invented. Cheating started back in the time of the Greek Olympics. The athletes would cheat just like students today. Banning cell phones at East High won’t stop cheating. Even if cell phones are banned, cheating will still happen all the time at school and stay as a serious issue.
Cell phones should not be banned at East High. Cell phones are great to have in an emergency. Cell phones also help students’ vocabulary grow. Cell phones help students have relationships with friends and help make lunch plans. Banning cell phones won’t stop cheating which has been going on forever. So write a letter expressing your feelings of banning cell phones to East’s principal.

Wow, are you serious? This is on eof the most illogical arguments for using cell phones in school. Texting imrpoves grammar? Obviously not. Try putting the phone down and picking up a book.

Thanks, I liked how I got to come on here and look at an example.. Oh and yeah I think that English Teacher should not be on here commenting, you should only put things on here that are POSITIVE, NOT NEGATIVE. Thanks

I will have agree with smart one. Its true, this should be about getting to be able to use cell phones in school. POSITIVE thoughts should only be posted here. THANKS!

Seriously Smart One? Everyone knows that your mom is you. Anyway, the English Teacher is right, hows does a cell phone improve your grammar? Have you not seen todays youth and how they text? All these abbreviations are obsolete. This essay has some good facts, but they can really work on this essay. Thanks and have a good day!
