Persuasive Popsicles
We have spent the last few weeks doing a Persuasive Writing unit, where your children have been producing some wonderful persuasive arguments in the form of letters. They have been using persuasive phrases such as "I strongly believe" and "for these reasons". For a bit of fun, while I was at a course I asked our reliever to get the students to write me a persuasive letter to convince me of why they deserved an ice-block. The result was some really great, creative writing that warmed my heart and they were rewarded with a lemonade Popsicle under the trees. I am looking forward to seeing more amazing writing from Room 30.
