Persuasive Writing: Syrian Refugee Crisis

(11)
Persuasive writing lesson using the topic of the Syrian Refugee crisis. I hope the lesson will teach students how to write persuasively and help them gain an understanding of the current issues going on in Syria. Students will act as 'Save the Children' and research into the current issues affecting the lives of those in Syria due to the war (research pack provided). They will then write a persuasive speech to the Foreign Secretary using the research that they have learnt. This can be taught over a series of lessons. Activities led to really interesting and insightful discussions, and students developed a more insightful understanding of the issues that affect their world :o) Nice idea to extend learning outside the classroom: - letters could be sent to the MP -speaking and listening activities -assembly presentations Please leave a review. I would love to know how the lesson went :o).

Detailed PowerPoint lesson breaking down A01 from English Language Paper 2 (explicit and implicit information). The lesson is centred around the theme of freedom, with students using an extract from Malala’s ‘Fight for Freedom’ and Harriet Jacob’s ‘Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl’. Extracts and Question 1 example provided by Millie Frost (Twitter: @MissMFrost). Thank you :o) For my detailed resources like this, visit Miss Cole’s TES shop.
