Persuasive writing

WALT persuade

                                                                                          

                         

Purpose: To persuade your audience to agree with your perspective. By sharing our opinion with others to make them believe your point of view.

In class we do MLE (modern learning environment) writing and right now we are discussing debates. We had three options
1. Coke is an everyday drink for children
2. School uniforms should be banned
3. There should be no age limit to driving a car

I choose the first option. Here is my persuasive writing:

Dear Reader I strongly disagree with  children drinking coke all day everyday here are my reasons why:

Coke is very unhealthy, It can give you cavities and it breaks away the protective layer of the teeth. Also coke can make you obese and it keeps you up.

Too much sugar = Too much energy

Secondly coke gives children (and adults)

diabetes which can lead to cut off limbs and that can lead to death. Coke has no fibre so your liver can’t process it. The sugar makes you very hypo and messes with your health and well being.

Lastly coke is a drug,Coke contains phosphoric acid which is an illegal drug in some countries. Also coke is highly addictive and it gives you mood swings one minute you might be happy the next you're sad or mad.

So those are my reasons to not give coke to children instead give them a nice cold glass of water free from the tap.  I hope you listened to my reasons and learnt a thing or two.
