Writer's Workshop: Persuasive Writing

The students have been assigned their Writer's Workshop for the month based on Persuasive Writing.  We have dissected a variety of persuasive writing samples in the classroom, and have partnered up and written our own and dissected those as well.  Now the students will be writing their own independent piece.

This assignment has been given on "Google Classroom."  Please ask your child to see the assignment outline. 

I am including some great samples that student can use to assist them in identifying strong characteristics of persuasive writing HERE and HERE.

Students are encouraged to read through a variety of student work but to always make their writing their own with their own language and ideas.

Happy Writing Grade 6s!  Remember a helpful hint is to pretend you are a lawyer, defending your argument or a sales person trying to make a sale!  Be convincing!
