The best way I usually go about starting persuasive essays is with a question/answer type setup. 
Usually, based on whatever your topic is about, make the VERY first sentence be a very important question that has to do with what your essay is about. Then, answer your own question.

Throughout the essay, you can either provide evidence to back up your reasoning or keep making new points and backing up THOSE with evidence. Just make sure you have a strong thesis that covers EVERYTHING your essay will be about. You can go back and edit it later if you must, but a strong thesis is sure to score you some points.

For the conclusion, make sure it restates your thesis. Don't say something like: "Well, from all of these examples, you can see my point."
INSTEAD, restate your main topic sentence, and then take whatever evidence you had in each of your body paragraphs and summarize it into your conclusion. 

~Hope this helps!

Good ways to start a persuasive essay can be: Bandwagon, Drama, and Questions.

I'll give you an example on each.
Let's say you're writing an essay 

Bandwagon
-Using the fact that many other people are doing it, and you should too.
example: 
Join the millions switching to Verizon!<span> </span>
Questions
- asking a question to draw attention
example: 
Are you tired of early school times? Is waking up early stressing you out?

drama
-using dramatic affect to draw attention
example:
Millions of chickens are being killed for meat every year.

I hope these help! They took a while to write but that is OK - i hope you find this useful :)

Drag each label to the correct category.
juin [17]

Answer:

Effective actions are the following:

1. Ask dominant participants to allow others to speak.

3. Ask participants to stop speaking if they get off topic.

4. When in doubt, politely ask a speaker to explain his or her point.

5. If a person rudely objects to a speaker's point, ask that person to respect the speaker's opinion.

Disruptive actions are as follows:

2. Interrupt the speaker to ensure that everyone is taking notes.

6. Make sure you get as many opportunities as possible to speak.

Explanation:

When it comes to group discussions, it is important to be polite and considerate toward others. Interrupting, for instance, is only acceptable when someone gets off topic, and even then it must be done carefully. Opinions must be respected, even if they differ tremendously from our own. It is also vital to be fair in giving everyone enough time to properly express themselves.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Under escort from the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division, nine Black students enter all-white Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. Three weeks earlier, Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus had surrounded the school with National Guard troops to prevent its federal court-ordered racial integration. After a tense standoff, President Dwight D. Eisenhower federalized the Arkansas National Guard and sent 1,000 army paratroopers to Little Rock to enforce the court order.

On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka that racial segregation in educational facilities was unconstitutional. Five days later, the Little Rock School Board issued a statement saying it would comply with the decision when the Supreme Court outlined the method and time frame in which desegregation should be implemented.

Arkansas was at the time among the more progressive Southern states in regard to racial issues. The University of Arkansas School of Law was integrated in 1949, and the Little Rock Public Library in 1951. Even before the Supreme Court ordered integration to proceed “with all deliberate speed,” the Little Rock School Board in 1955 unanimously adopted a plan of integration to begin in 1957 at the high school level. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) filed suit, arguing the plan was too gradual, but a federal judge dismissed the suit, saying that the school board was acting in “utmost good faith.” Meanwhile, Little Rock’s public buses were desegregated. By 1957, seven out of Arkansas’ eight state universities were integrated.
