Persuasive Writing Unit

Seventh grade ELA students began a persuasive writing unit today.  Students will investigate a variety of persuasive writing pieces and then research, write, edit, and publish their own piece of persuasive writing.

Students will have the opportunity to choose one of the following topics to research and then write about:

• Should teens be able to buy violent video games?
• Should students be paid for having good grades?
• Should cell phones be allowed in middle school?
