Persuasive writing - Yr 8/9

This is a great Powerpoint that could be used in conjunction with the book Stone Cold or any other novel relating to homelessness. The presentation highlights persuasive language techniques in television advertising and asks students to research a given homeless charity. Once this has been completed, students will then apply what they have learned in a presentation. The students will work in groups, and each are given a task to complete. This lesson develops students persuasive writing skills, along with team working skills and speaking and listening. This is a great lesson to have if you are being observed as the students learn loads and love it. I would put a picture up but I'm having difficulty uploading it.
