  2. It is important to avoid a redundant, boring restatement of the main arguments at the end. Conclusions should powerfully and creatively restate each main argument and present a clear call to action.

  3. What do you think of this one? So, now you know why you should vote for me for class president. I will work for more after-school activities. Another reason is I will convince the school to have more dances with live music. The last reason you should vote for me is that I am a good listener and will hear what you have to say. So, vote for me, and things will improve for everyone at school.

  4. Argumentative Conclusion Technique A Now or Never Statement • Create a sense of urgency and immediacy in order to rouse your reader to action. Example: The time has come to decide. Who do you want to represent you?

  5. Argumentative Conclusion Technique Use Vivid Language • Restate each argument in a compelling way. Example: If you want more exciting, stimulating after-school activities like a ski club, and coffee house, and school dances with the hottest local bands - these are just two reasons to give me your vote.

  6. Argumentative Conclusion Technique Highlight the Most Important Argument • Stress the argument you felt was the most convincing. Example: But most importantly, vote for someone who will be your voice on the student council and with the school administration.

  7. Argumentative Conclusion Technique Use a Definitive Word or Phrase • Take on a tone of authority to help convince the reader. Example: The choice is clear - get out there and cast your vote for me, Carrie Evers - the only choice for you.

  8. Argumentative Conclusion Technique A Call To Action • Clearly state what it is you want the reader to do. Example: The choice is clear - get out there and cast your vote for me, Carrie Evers - the only choice for you.
