Persuasion

Dogs are better than cats, tacos are better than burritos, Broncos are better than the Raiders - do you agree??? These are some of the student's ideas - and now they are going to learn how to persuade their audience through a persuasion or argumentative essay.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lzGy5gizKg

Today we had a free write in writer's workshop. They came up with some great stories and had a good time sharing with each other. 

The students need to review parts of speech. Here is a fun site to help them: http://sheppardsoftware.com/grammargames/pandapopPartsofSpeech.htm 

Please remember that all weekly assignments are due tomorrow.

Our quote for today is from Sri Chimnoy, “Not to give up under any circumstances should be the motto of our life: we shall try again and again, and we are bound to succeed."
