We have just started teaching persuasive writing. This kind of writing tries to convince the reader to do what the writer proposes or to adopt the writers point of view. You can have your child practice this at home verbally by giving valid reasons for their point of view. (for example: why I think pizza is the best food, or why I think you should read this book etc...)

Have a great week! :)
