Persuasive Writing

13th Jun 2026

P5 arrived on Monday morning to find their chairs marked as ‘Out of Order’. This meant completing their morning work on the floor. Thankfully, it didn’t take them long to use their persuasive skills to convince Miss Smyth to return their chairs!

They moved on to writing persuasive paragraphs about the importance of stopping plastic pollution and shared their fantastic ideas with their peers. They also worked in pairs to identify a problem linked to sea pollution, design a creative solution and present their ideas to the class.

Such amazing creativity, teamwork and persuasive thinking on display!
