    I am PLANNING/DOING a persuasive speech on the topic identity:

    • to demonstrate my understanding that texts may have more than one audience. An audience’s context influences its interpretations of the text.
    • to demonstrate that, as a text creator, I can create texts to advocate for myself, for others, and to try to change my world
    • by organising my own text so that my structures support my purpose/ meaning
    • by revising and editing and proofreading the text to check the grammar, spelling, and punctuation
    • by choosing language that is appropriate to the topic, audience, and purpose



    Success Criteria: 

    • My written a speech  presents and advocates for my ideas to a specific audience

    • I have deliberately selected language features (including persuasive techniques) for effect to support my purpose
