Improving our Persuasive Writing
Your writing prompt will be airdropped to your iPad.

It is different because you hav to use more persuasive words that draws the reader in and believes your statement of opinion. You will also have to work harder and plan the structure of the text and how it is set out.

It is different because writing a persuasive passage in grade three all you needed was write 3 arguments and include language features such as: rhetorical questions, statements, commands, commas, full stops and explanation marks. And at leats 15 misspelt words.
But in grade five you need to have all of the things you needed in grade three plus forceful words, more then three points, bigger and more complex words, percentages and words that draw the readers attention.
