Persuasive letters - notes under the door

Yesterday with Mr Walls, the children continued the work we have been doing about adverts, and persuasion. They had various situations where they had to respond with a "note under the door"

Scenario 1; You want to watch the film starting at 9pm, your bedtime is usually 8.30pm and it's a school night.



Letters to Mum







Scenario 2; Your homework is due in tomorrow and you need Dad to help, trouble is the Euro 2012 final is on.






Following on from this Mr Walls suggested the children wrote notes to me, to persuade me to let them have an end of year party. How can I say no to these?









Here is another one for you to respond to through the comment box

Note under the door to your brother/sister to let you go first on the Wii/xbox/Playstation/DS/Laptop.

  7. Hello Year 4,

    I can see by your writing, you are all quite skilled at persuasion. Considering the scenarios, I would guess the hardest scenario and the one requiring the greatest persuasion would be prying dad away from the Euro 2012 Final if he is a big fan. The easiest would be to convince your teacher to let you have an end of year party.

    Staying up late to watch a movie? At the moment I am looking after a 9 and 12 year old. Just last night the 12 year old tried to convince me she should stay up late to watch a movie. She wasn't persuasive enough. Perhaps she should take lessons from some of you. :)
