Purposeful Persuasive Writing

In writing this term we are working on persuasive writing. Firstly we had to do planning on a persuasive topic of our choice. I chose to do why sportswomen should get more credit. Then we got to write our persuasive writing.
We then had to swap stories with someone in our literacy group and fill in some sheets on our buddies story. Here is what my buddy Taylor filled in for mine:

We then started a new piece of persuasive writing on a topic of our choice using the following 4 progressions:
1. Independently edit and revise my writing for clarity, impact and purpose.
2.Support ideas with increasing detail and elaboration.
3. Use language features that are suitable to the topic, audience and purpose.
4. Begin to use literary features for effect when appropriate.
I did my second bit of persuasive writing on why maths is more important than writing. Here it is:



We then had to edit our story with the 4 learning progressions and then go back and edit the first bit of writing we did with the same 4 progressions.
