Spartan students have been hard at work over the last few weeks of English class. They have been working on a persuasive essay called "Dumb Law". This essay allowed students to select an old, outdated law from a provided list and defend this law, saying why it should still be enforced.
The students used the three forms of persuasion that they were taught in English: appeal to reason, appeal to emotion, and appeal of good character.
Next up is a Letter Writing Unit, where students will learn the differences between business letters and personal letters and will discover how to write each kind.
