We published our narrative pieces last week and have moved onto a new genre, PERSUASIVE!
The children are learning what an opinion is and how to support it. We are following a simple format when doing our writing:
Opinion
Reason
Explain (or Example)
Opinion re-stated
We have already made a list of things we like and don't like so that the kids can easily draw from different ideas. We will be discussing how to best choose a topic and how to better support our opinions.
Practice at home. Next time your child asks for something, have them give you reasons and examples why they should have it.
We will working with this genre through December.
