Persuade people to be a pirate!! What would be so awesome about being a pirate do you think? The adventures? Living on a ship with all your mates? Finding treasure?! Not brushing your teeth?! You decide! Write a speech that you think a pirate might give to young people to persuade them to be a pirate! What could you say that would make them say "YARRRR!" Use as many persuasive features as possible- rhetorical questions, high modality words, imperative verbs, feel good words. Add a caption to the photo with your persuasive piece :)
