Our English focus today is an author study about Roald Dahl. We have looked at Roald Dahl books during year 5 so your task today is to choose a Roald Dahl book and write a persuasive piece about why it is a great book to read.
Remember that persuasive writing has...
| Title implies a point of view |
| Reasons to support the viewpoint |
| Facts and evidence to support reasons |
| Connectives to link ideas (e.g. however, therefore, furthermore) |
| Persuasive devices: Agreement (e.g. obviously, without doubt) |
| Powerful adjectives Rhetorical questions Conclusion to summarise and state opinion |
