Persuasive Language features



L.I- To unpack language features found in persuasive writing

You are trying to persuade schools that punishments of 1900 make students more focused in class.

Rhetorical question:
- How would you feel if the children in your class disrespected you?

Repetition:
- Remember how you got treated at school?, Remember how you were?

Emotive language:
- We are hardworking tired, staff members that try to make these children be the best that they can be.

Exaggeration:
- If you talk one more time I will strap you so hard your parents will hear you from here.

Facts and statistics:
- 95% of teachers think that we should bring back punishments to school.

Groups of three:
- These children are naughty, obedient, and are always miss behaving!

Punishments in our school was unfair in 1900.
Rhetorical question:
- Do you like seeing children covered with bruises?

Repetition:
- Did you like hitting children, did you think it was fun?

Emotive Language:
- Children back in 1900 were scared, and frightened and they got hit and that was not fair!

Exaggeration:
- If hitting children comes back into schools I will scream!

Facts and Statistics:
- 95% of children think the 1900 punishing ways were not fair.

Groups of Three:
- Back in 1900 teachers were mean, strict and always telling us what to do.
