4. Introduce Persuasive Writing
 * What is persuasion?
 * How are people persuasive? How do people persuade you? Does it work?
 * Why do you believe what you believe? How were you persuaded?
 * Let's focus on good persuasion: persuasion that works.
 * Good persuasion follows this model:
 * First, the persuader needs to explain what people say about a topic (they say).
 * Then, the persuader can
 * agree with what others say and explain why
 * agree with what others say and add more and explain why
 * disagree with what others say and explain why
 * These are the 2 basic steps to follow: "they say this and I say this"
 * Why do we need to start with what other people say?
 * What does that look like? Where do we find what other people say?
