eliminating elective courses for struggling students is a bad idea. Which
appeal would most likely move this audience to support your cause?
A. I am a straight-A student, and my art class is one of the best parts
of my day. Without it, I wouldn't look forward to coming to school.
B. You might not remember this, but teenagers don't like being forced
to spend all their time studying boring subjects.
C. When you were in school, you got to take a wide variety of
electives, and you grew up to become members of the school
board!
D. A poll of the student body shows that 88 percent of struggling
students feel more motivated to come to school because of their
electives.
