Today will beginning planning a persuasive text. We will be taking several lessons to develop our text, starting with the plan.

Using the topic ”MPPS Should have a swimming pool’, choose either for or against and plan a piece of writing.

Grade 3s will use the planning sheet handed in class while the 4s will use this online persuasion map:

You will need  to use the Microsoft Edge browser.

This week we began a series of lessons on writing and reading a persuasive text.

We have looked at the difference between a fact and an opinion. We have also discussed that opinions are the starting point of a strong persuasive text. Without an opinion there is no reason to persuade an audience.

Remember the stronger, and clearer, you state your opinion the stronger your text will become.
