Persuasive Writing: Final Draft


UN DAY tomorrow - You may where your countries traditional clothes.

Study link 5.6
Final draft for persuasive pieces due in tomorrow by 8am. YOU MUST BRING IN A HARD COPY. - You will not be allowed  to print in school.  - Don not forget to do this.

The Proof Reading sheet is my way of showing you how I am grading this paper. With past assignments, I have been shocked to see that students have ignored the recommendations on the proof reading sheet. If you do not edit your paper using the suggestions given, your paper will not be as strong as it could be. BE WARNED! Take advantage of this tool and FOLLOW the guidelines given.

Make sure you have a STRONG conclusion - see photo for guidelines

I was pleased with your work ethic and productivity today... the learning has really begun


Telunas applications will be accepted up to 8.00am Monday morning - NO LATER!

Mr Buxton, I noticed a spelling error in the blog post! The word that was wrong was wear, you wrote you may where your traditional clothes to school. Wear and where are homophones

For the counter argument we need to have a question and answer, but is it all in one paragraph.

Anonymous said...

I think so

what colors do we color the other parts miguel?

Anonymous said...

remember toprint it out onto a hard copy

Anonymous said...

What other parts? Be specific

Anonymous said...

Harriet, i think the anecdote or counter argument is blue, and the conclustion paragraph is red

Anonymous said...

can the anecdote be in first person?

+1 H.

the color code is meant to help not confuse you. Decide what it is you are trying to do - support or elaborate and then color code appropriately - THINK FIRST!

I ALREADY SAID THAT THE COUNTER ARGUMENT AND THE ANECDOTE ARE BLUE!!!

Anonymous said...

None of the essay can be first person

Anonymous said...

So you can't use "I", "You", "We", etc.

Anonymous said...

The Call to Action can have a "You" statement, right? the pic on the post has a "You" statement under "Call to Action."

Anonymous said...

Miguel I think you can't have a "You" statement in the Call To Action still I am not sure though.

I think that SOR stands for subject, opinion and reason (1,2,3 reasons)

Anonymous said...

I'm not so sure though...

Yes it does...

Mr. Buxton, I was writing my personal essay for RLA in word and I was wondering why this sentence is grammatically incorrect: All of these skills will be carried by this year’s 6th graders throughout their whole lives.

Thanks!

P.S. We had to make new accounts and blogs this year so that Mr.Elms could access our blogs in TeacherDashboard. Is that would you guys had to do?
