Persuasive Writing

At the moment we are learning how to write a persuasive argument. The topic we have just finished was "All Kids Should have Jobs". The children had to pick a side and persuade the audience to agree with them. Here are some of the fantastic ideas that the children came up with.
AGREE -
Children will get lots of money for their jobs and will not get bored when their jobs are done because they will be able to buy very cool toys. - Bowen H

Mum will have a clean house because I will be helping Mum clean. - John E

If your Dad has to go away for work in Australia and he doesn't have any spending money, you could lend him the money you earned working at your job. - Joshua K

We could buy whatever we wanted with the money and our Mums couldn't disagree! - Ben P

Children will be fit and healthy because they are always doing jobs. - Charlie M

DISAGREE
Firstly kids will be too tired after school. Secondly they will get no time to play! - Andrew G

Well done Room 9 writers, keep up the good work!
Miss Rooney
