Persuasive Writing

 We were learning about creating an amazing piece of writing - not any piece of writing but a piece of persuasive writing. We had to create a plan that Mrs Bava had created on a slide, we had to finish the slide with quality planning and once we had done that we needed to start our draft writing. The draft had to be amazing because it was going into our PFA (portfolio for assessment). As soon as we thought we had finished it we had to show the teacher and she would tell us if we needed anything else. If she told us that our writing was good then we went onto publishing then our good copy (we needed to post it our blog clearly). After that there was some fast finisher activities that we could do.               

The thing I most enjoyed about this particular writing session was the fact that we were writing about something I was so sure about my opinion on. The topic we were doing this writing about was: Is the environment our responsibility? I am 100% sure that the environment is our responsibility and will be forever or as long as we walk the earth which might be until it is destroyed. Which will be sooner than we think if we keep on polluting the the world like we are at the moment. I bet you are saying: "I have never done anything like that in my life," you might not have actually dropped a piece of rubbish on purpose but, here comes the big but have you ever done anything to make a change to how much rubbish is in our world today? If you have I shake you warmly by the hand, clap you on the back, thank you and congratulate you. If not try to do something - it might be a little thing eg: picking up the old juice packet that you saw on the side of the road this morning, but please do something. 

For me it was challenging to get enough hard, firm truthful evidence to support my main points. I kept on going to Mrs Bava thinking that I was finished but when she saw it she said that it needed more evidence! I did that two times until she looked at it and said that it was ready to be published, but she was right, it is a lot better now than when it was when I first brought it to Mrs Bava. If you think that I am lying take a look at my writing and make up your opinion, (you do not have to make a persuasive writing post about it though!) and go on with your daily life like after mindfulness.

Next time I think I will add more facts the first time I am told and keep on going until I have got at least two links in the references. this will help the readers (you) believe me more than if I just put in a tiny bit of not truthful facts. Just think please if you agree with that statement or not, now I need to stop writing before I do too much instead of not enough or the right amount.
